<br /> 2. Provide suitable storage facilities for all materials, which are subject to injury
<br /> by exposure to weather, theft, breakage, or otherwise.
<br /> 3. Place upon the Work or any part thereof, only such loads as are consistent
<br /> with the safety of that portion of the Work.
<br /> 4. Clean up frequently all refuse, rubbish, scrap materials, and debris caused
<br /> by construction operations, so that at all times, the site of the Work presents
<br /> a safe, orderly, and workmanlike appearance.
<br /> 5. Provide barricades and guard rails around openings, for scaffolding, for
<br /> temporary stairs and ramps, around excavations, elevated walkways and
<br /> other hazardous areas.

<br /> expense, to a condition equal to or better than that existing before the damage
<br /> was done.
<br /> 1.2 BARRICADES AND WARNING SIGNALS

<br /> place, provide barricades, fences, lights, warning signs, danger signals, and
