the use of formwork, the earth face in such locations shall be
prevented from crumbling or washing into concrete during
placing and compaction by my efficient means, and care shall
be taken to maintain the correct cover to the reinforcement.
All concreting shall be continuous to completion or to an
approved construction joint.
The concrete shall be cured by covering with a layer of
sacking, canvas, hessian or other absorbent material and the
concrete shall be kept constantly wet for the first seven days
after casting, Waterproof concrete

total resulting from multiplying the unit rate by the quantity, the unit rate as quoted will prevail, unless in the opinion of the Employer, there is an obvious typographical error, in which case the adjustment will be made to the entry containing that error.
(c) In the event of a discrepancy between the tender amount as stated in
the Form of Tender and the corrected tender figure in the main summary of the Bill of Quantities, the amount as stated in the Form of Tender shall prevail.

difference between the tender amount and the corrected tender sum as a percentage of the corrected Builder’s Work (i.e. Corrected tender sum less P.C. and Provisional Sums)
(e) The Error Correction Factor shall be applied to all Builder’s Work (as a
rebate or addition as the case may be) for the purposes of valuations for - Certificates and valuation of variations.
(f) the amount stated in the tender will be adjusted in accordance with the
above procedure for the correction of errors and, with concurrence of the tenderer, shall be considered as binding upon the tenderer. If the tenderer does not accept the corrected amount, the tender may be rejected and the Tender Security may be forfeited in accordance with clause 3.11.

substantially responsive in accordance with Clause 5.5.

modifications offered in accordance with clause 4.6 5.10 The Employer reserves the right to accept or reject any variation, deviation,
or alternative offer. Variations, deviations, and alternative offers and other factors which are in excess of the requirements of the tender documents or otherwise result in unsolicited benefits for the Employer will not be taken into account in tender evaluation.

tender from the time of the tender opening to the time the Contract is awarded. Any effort by the Tenderer to influence the Employer or his employees in his decision on tender evaluation, tender comparison or Contract award may result in the rejection of the tender.

22.3 If the work in the variation corresponds with an item description in the Bills of
Quantities and if in the opinion of the Project Manager, the quantity of work is not above the limit stated in Clause 21.2 or the timing of its execution does not cause the cost per unit of quantity to change, the rate in the Bills of Quantities shall be used to calculate the value of the variation.

quotation being given and considered without delaying the Work, no quotation shall be given and the variation shall be treated as a Compensation Event.

been avoided by giving early warning.
22.7 When the Program is updated, the Contractor shall provide the Project Manager with an updated cash flow forecast.

23.2 The value of Work executed shall comprise the value of the quantities of the items in
the Bills of Quantities completed; materials delivered on Site, variations and compensation events. Such materials shall become the property of the Employer once the Employer has paid the Contractor for their value. Thereafter, they shall not be removed from Site without the Project Manager’s instructions except for use upon the Works.
23.3 Payments shall be adjusted for deductions for retention. The Employer shall pay
the Contractor the amounts certified by the Project Manager within 30 days of the date of issue of each certificate. If the Employer makes a late payment, the Contractor shall be paid simple interest on the late payment in the next payment. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of number of days delayed at a rate three percentage points above the Central Bank of Kenya’s average rate for base lending prevailing as of the first day the payment becomes overdue.
23.4 If an amount certified is increased in a later certificate or as a result of an award by
an Arbitrator, the Contractor shall be paid interest upon the delayed payment as set out in this clause. Interest shall be calculated from the date upon which the increased amount would have been certified in the absence of dispute.

the - payments and where applicable from the balance owing to the Contractor. Reimbursement shall begin when the amount of the sums due under the Contract reaches 20% of the original amount of the Contract. It shall have been completed by the time 80% of this amount is reached.
The amount to be repaid by way of successive deductions shall be calculated by means of the formula: R = A(x1 – x11)
80 – 20 Where: R = the amount to be reimbursed A = the amount of the advance which has been granted
X1 = the amount of proposed cumulative payments as a percentage of the original amount of the Contract. This figure will exceed 20% but not exceed 80%.

3. CORRECTION OF TENDERS Arithmetic errors in the tenders will be corrected by the engineer in the following
manner:
a) Errors in Extensions If a total extension figure is entered, the extended total shall be a product of the
tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, and the product shall be added to the tender sum.
If the total extension entered in the bill of quantities is less than the product of the

a) Check that no page/s of this document is/are missing or illegible and to have this rectified
b) Ensure that all ambiguities, doubts or obscure points in this document are cleared with the engineer.
No claims for alleged deficiencies in the information given in this document shall be considered at a later date.
2. ALTERATION TO THIS DOCUMENT Unauthorized alteration or qualification made to the text of this document by the
tenderer shall disqualify the tenderer.
3. CORRECTION OF TENDERS Arithmetic errors in the tenders will be corrected by the engineer in the following manner:
a) Errors in Extensions If a total extension figure is entered, the extended total shall be a product of the tendered
unit rate and the quantity of the item, and the product shall be added to the tender sum. If the total extension entered in the bill of quantities is less than the product of the tendered
unit rate and the quantity of the item, a corrected unit rate shall be obtained by dividing the extension total and the quantity of the item. The tender sum shall thus not be amended.
If the total extension entered in the bill of quantities is greater than the product of the
tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, the extension total shall be reduced to the correct product of the tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, and the tender sum shall be reduced correspondingly.
b) Omission of Unit Rates:
If an extension total is entered in the bill of quantities but no unit rate is entered therein, the unit rate shall be calculated as the extension total divided by the quantity of the item.

generator contactor opens at between 95%. and 85% of normal voltage. Re-check water and oil levels.
13) Turn selector switch 'to auto' position. Disconnect the sensing circuit supply
and check that the set starts, the mains contactor opens, and the generator contactor closes in correct order. Reconnect the sensing circuit to verify that the Engine stops on the restoration of the mains supply and the contactors operate correctly.
Check voltage sensing and time delays on each phase in turn and also that the push buttons for mains failure simulation and Engine stopping operate correctly.
NOTE: Running of the engine for any length of time under no-load conditions is undesirable and tests calling for such operation should be carried out in as short a time as possible consistent with thoroughness.
14) Operate the necessary isolators and switches to put the set on standby for
the essential services network with the selector switch in the ‘Auto' position, and using the mains failure simulation push, verify that the set operates correctly with the appropriate time delay for taking up load and that the carrying of the load and its distribution over the three phrases are satisfactory.
15) Run the set at various loads for periods totalling at least 30 minutes. Check
the voltage and current in each phase in turn and that the voltage and frequency are being maintained within the required limits with large alterations of loads.

Note the rate of charge on the dynamo ammeter with the engine running (if a dynamo is fitted) and the rate of charge on the battery charging ammeter with the engine stopped. Check against manufacturer's recommendation and adjust charging rates if necessary.
16) Check the operation of the turbo-charger unit (if fitted) and the colour of the
exhaust gas at various loads.
17) Check that the various engine safeguards operate satisfactorily. 18) Check the vibration absorbing devices for proper operation and that the
performance of all flexible connections both mechanical and electrical, are satisfactory.
19) When all tests are satisfactory and agreed with the Architect or his
representative, the lubricating oil and water levels shall be finally checked, the fuel oil tank replenished and the set left in normal operating order.
20) An initial supply of all lubricating oils and greases shall be provided by the
Contractor.
21) Additional lubricating oil shall be provided for recharging the engine sump once together with a supply of lubricating oils and greases to cover the normal use and servicing of the set during the 12 months maintenance period referred to in section 47.
45. SPARE PARTS

1) Make good any defects in the unit and replace any parts that fail or show signs of weakness or undue wear in consequence of faulty design, workmanship or materials on notification of the defect.
2) Visit the site and with all diligence attend to any such defect that arises within
48 hours of receiving notification of the defect. 3) Carry out regular examination and serving of the unit at the intervals laid
down by the manufacturer or every three months, whichever is the sooner; the service examination to include all necessary adjustments, greasing, oiling, cleaning changing of lubricating oils to keep the unit in sound and efficient working order.
4) Instruct the maintenance personnel in the proper operation, care and
maintenance of the set and it's equipment. 47.3 If during the maintenance period the unit is or is likely to be out of use for a period
greater that 48 hours, due to the unit or part thereof developing a defect attributable to faulty design, workmanship or materials, or due to neglect of maintenance by the
Contractor, the Contractor shall at his own expense immediately provide and install on free loan a suitable temporary unit for use until the required repair or replacement has been satisfactorily undertaken and the original set (or its replacement) put into proper working order.
47.4 At the end of the twelve months period of maintenance the Contractor shall (in
addition of the normal servicing work) carry out a comprehensive examination and test of the set and its auxiliaries, including the checking of the operation of controls and safeguards, to ensure that the unit is in proper working order and in satisfactory condition for handing over to the client whose representative shall be present at such examination and test.

1. DOCUMENT CHECK Before submitting his tender, the tenderer is required to:
a) check that no page/s of this document is/are missing or illegible and to have this rectified
b) ensure that all ambiguities, doubts or obscure points in this document are cleared with the engineer.
No claims for alleged deficiencies in the information given in this document shall be considered at a later date.
2. ALTERATION TO THIS DOCUMENT Unauthorized alteration or qualification made to the text of this document by the
tenderer shall disqualify the tenderer.
3. CORRECTION OF TENDERS Arithmetic errors in the tenders will be corrected by the engineer in the following
manner:
a) Errors in Extensions If a total extension figure is entered, the extended total shall be a product of the
tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, and the product shall be added to the tender sum.
If the total extension entered in the bill of quantities is less than the product of the
tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, a corrected unit rate shall be obtained by dividing the extension total and the quantity of the item. The tender sum shall thus not be amended.
If the total extension entered in the bill of quantities is greater than the product of
the tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, the extension total shall be reduced to the correct product of the tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, and the tender sum shall be reduced correspondingly.
b) Omission of Unit Rates:
If an extension total is entered in the bill of quantities but no unit rate is entered therein, the unit rate shall be calculated as the extension total divided by the quantity of the item.
EDE / 064/LI EDSON Engineers
LIFT 7 Nakuru County Offices

c) Omission of Extension Rate & Extension Total: If no unit rate and extension total is entered against any item in the bills of
quantities, it will be assumed that the cost of the item is fully and completely covered elsewhere in the bills of quantities.
d) Errors in Addition: All errors in addition, irrespective of where they occur in the bills of quantities shall
be corrected and the tender sum amended correspondingly.
4. DISCOUNTS No lump sum discounts shall be made in the tender and if such a discount does

2.09 BARRING AND ROUTE RESTRICTION
It shall be possible at will to bar any extension from access to the public exchange network. Selective route Restriction equipment is required on all both way and outgoing exchange lines to prevent any or all extensions from reaching certain areas of the public telephone network including all areas outside the borders of the Republic. The equipment shall prevent a user, after receiving main exchange dial tone, dialing any number of pre-selected 4 digit codes. It shall be possible to change such pre- selected codes easily and at will without the addition of further equipment, but a security system must prevent this being done by unauthorized persons. It shall not be possible to defeat this equipment from an extension by non-standard dialing, switch hook flashing, enquiry or transfer use, tie line transfer, switch follow on calls after an outside caller has disconnected, or in any other way except that which may be used especially for extensions entitled to full access.
It shall not be possible for an extension to receive public exchange dial tone without the route restriction devices being in circuit.
A follow-on call trap is required on the exchange lines, and this must not prevent the operator from flashing the main exchange.
It shall not be possible for an extension to originate a new outside call following the disconnection of an established call until the public exchange and local subscribers auto equipment has released, and the route restriction and barring equipment has been reset and re-connected to the circuit.
A calling Line Identification Panel with busying facilities is required.
Camp-on-busy, Trunk offer, “call back” and automatic transfer facilities must not de-activate the barring and route restriction circuit. The exchange should be suitable for the future addition of direct dialing-in facilities, ring back when free absent extension transfer.

Each of the controlled doors shall have contact input. This input shall be used
to indicate the following:- o Unauthorized Access o Door Left Open o Door Closed
The door contact shall also indicate to the system when the door has been
opened and closed after authorized access or request to exit operation. Closing the door shall cancel any used lock release time.
If anti-pass back is being used on a door, then an authorized access
transaction is not reported until the door has actually opened.
The door controller shall be mounted in a secure metal cabinet of sufficient size to enable easy cable handling and room for at least two 6.0 Amp hour back-up batteries. It shall have dimensions not greater than:

reader technology. The method of operation shall be based on electro-
magnetic induction.
Each card shall have a unique pre-programmed code. The cards shall be
set at the time of manufacture and must not be capable of being
reproduced. Programmable cards are not acceptable. The card shall have
a code that produces no less than sixty-eight (68) thousands million
different possible combinations.
Any card can be enrolled on to any similar system in the world. Cards that
contain a facility or site code are not acceptable. Existing cards must be
able to be enrolled on to the system.
It shall be credit card sized flat card and have a thickness of no greater
than 1.3mm.
It shall allow the printing of a Photo ID directly on to the surface of the
card.
The card shall not contain a battery.
If the system uses “Master” or “Editor” cards, then these cards shall not be
different from any other cards. Any card shall be able to be selected and
used as a Master or Editor card. If a Master or Editor Card is lost then the
system must accept a new master or editor from any of the existing cards.

Arithmetic errors in the tenders will be corrected by the engineer in the following
manner:
a) Errors in Extensions If a total extension figure is entered, the extended total shall be a product of the
tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, and the product shall be added to the tender sum.
If the total extension entered in the bill of quantities is less than the product of the
tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, a corrected unit rate shall be obtained by dividing the extension total and the quantity of the item. The tender sum shall thus not be amended.
If the total extension entered in the bill of quantities is greater than the product of
the tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, the extension total shall be reduced to the correct product of the tendered unit rate and the quantity of the item, and the tender sum shall be reduced correspondingly.
b) Omission of Unit Rates:
If an extension total is entered in the bill of quantities but no unit rate is entered therein, the unit rate shall be calculated as the extension total divided by the quantity of the item.
