TERMS AND CONDITIONS (1) Unit rates apply to standard working days, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m to 6:00 p.m. Testing and hourly rates will be increased by 50% for weekend, holiday or after-hours services (i.e., services performed before 7:00 am or after 7:00 pm). Our man-hour rates as presented herein are based on day -time testing only. No allowances for nighttime work are reflected in our fee. (2) The contractor (or County personnel) should contact Andersen Andre Consulting Engineers, Inc. at (772) 807-9191 a minimum of 24 hours prior to any testing and 48 hours prior to weekend and evening work. (3) If our testing estimate for a specific work element is insufficient for that particular activity, resources from another work element can be used without prior authorization from the client as long as our total cost estimate is not exceeded. We will notify you in advance if it appears that the cost estimate presented in the attached unit fee schedule will be exceeded. (4) AACE has not been provided with the selected Contractor's proposed schedule. Therefore, man-hours and associated testing quantities are based on our experience with similar projects. It is possible that our testing budget may require revision based on contractor efficiency, methodology and scheduling. (5) Soil sample and concrete cylinder pickup for laboratory testing (e.g., Proctor, LBR testing, compressive strength, etc.) will be billed at $68.00/hour if not scheduled with other work. (6) Our services do not include reviewing, monitoring or reporting any aspect of the required Maintenance of Traffic (M.O.T.) that may be required for this project. (7) AACE's field technicians and engineers do not direct or witness the performance of any work. Neither the presence of an RACE representative on-site nor the observation and testing performed by our firm implies AACE's responsibility for defects discovered in the construction work. (8) AACE will not be responsible for job or site safety for this project; job site safety will be the sole responsibility of the contractor. (9) AACE will not have stop -work authority. Should our representatives encounter materials or workmanship that, either based on direct testing or on our experience with similar projects, does not appear to meet the engineering plans and specifications, we will notify Indian River County immediately. Results will not be relayed to the Contractor without prior consent of the County. (10) We understand that an FDOT Earthwork/Density Log Book will be prepared for the project by the QC firm; RACE will not be required to prepare the log book, nor will AACE be required to enter test results into either the log book or the Materials Acceptance and Certification (MAC) System.
