General Instructions For Earth Works Within Industry

By Ricky Andrews

Should the Superior give the Vendor permission to proceed without checking the setting out, this will in no way relieve the Vendor of his responsibility to prepare the Projects. In rock excavation, where over break occurs as a result of blasting or breaking, the resulting loose and fractured rock will be removed and the over excavation will be filled with lean mix concrete, except when otherwise directed by the Superior.

The Vendor will excavate by any method elected provided that the method will result in project conforming to the requirements herein; will conform to all lawful safety requirements; and will not cause destruction or interference to adjacent construction project, the plant or its normal operation.

Excavations shall be accurately finished to lines, levels and grades as shown on the drawings. Excavations for footings, foundations and walls which are carried below the specified levels shall be filled with lean mix concrete at the Contractor's expense unless other fill material is approved by the Superintendent.
