Abstract:
The following divisions are recognized as separate and distinct operations in the construction of concrete work for which separate modes of measurement are necessary: I. Monolithic Concrete: (a) Concrete. (b) Forms. (c) Reinforcement. (d) Surface Finish. II. Sidewalks. III. Structural Cast Concrete: (a) Concrete. (b) Reinforcement. (c) Erection. IV. Cast Concrete Trim and Ornamental Work. The following general rules shall govern the measurement of the above items (with the exceptions where specifically noted): (a) All work shall be measured net as fixed or placed in the structure. (b) In no case shall non-existent material be measured to cover extra labor. (c) No allowance shall be made for waste, voids, or cutting.
