105.11 REMOVAL OF UNACCEPT ABLE AND UNAUTHORIZED WORK . Work which does

not reasonably conform to the requirements of the Contract will be considered unacceptable, unless otherwise determined acceptable under the provisions of Subsection 105.03; Conformity with Plans and Specifications . Unacceptable work, whether the result of poor workmanship, use of defective materials, or damage through carelessness, found to exist prior to the final acceptance of the work, shall be removed immediately and replaced in an acceptable manner at the Contractor's expense. Work performed contrary to the instructions of the Engineer; work performed beyond the lines and grades shown on the Plans, or as otherwise provided; or any extra work performed without authority, will be considered as unauthorized work and will not be paid for under the provisions of the Contract. Work so performed may be ordered removed and/or replaced at the Contractor's expense. If the Contractor fails to promptly comply with any order of the Engineer made under the provisions of this Subsection, the Engineer is authorized to require unacceptable work to be remedied or removed and replaced, and unauthorized work to be removed, and to deduct the costs incurred thereby from any monies due or to become due the Contractor.

105.12 LOAD RESTRICTIONS . The Contractor shall comply with all legal load restrictions in

the hauling of equipment or materials on public roads beyond the limits of the project. A special permit will not relieve the Contractor of liability for damage which may result from the moving of such equipment or materials. The operation of equipment on hauling loads which cause damage to structures or the roadway, or to any other type of construction, will not be permitted. Handling or hauling of materials over the base course or surface course under construction shall be limited as directed by the Engineer to prevent damage to the pavement structure. No loads will be permitted on a concrete pavement, base or structure before the concrete has attained its required strength unless otherwise authorized in writing by the Engineer.

105.13 MAINTENANCE DURING CONSTRUCTION . The Contractor shall maintain the work

during construction and until the project is substantially complete. This maintenance shall constitute continuous and effective work pr osecuted day by day, with adequate equipment and forces to the end that the roadway or structures are kept in satisfactory condition. If the Contract requires the placing of a course upon a course or subgrade previously constructed, the Contractor shall maintain the previous course or subgrade during all construction operations. Cost of maintenance work during construction and before the project is substantially completed is contained within the Contract unit prices of the various pay items and the Contractor will not be paid an additional amount.
