600.04Method of Measurement

When more than one project is included in one contract, the amount of payment to be made will be based on the "Percent Complete" as defined in Article 108.04 and amount of the entire contract, not the amount of each individual project. Once the amount of payment is determined, based on the entire contract, this amount will then be prepared for payment on each individual project based on the fraction of the total contract of which the project is a part. Partial Payments for mobilization are based on the Percent Complete and the total adjusted contract amount for all items of work. Payments will be made at the time, and in the amounts shown in the following schedules. MOBILIZATION 467
