volumes computed using struck capacity. Hauling units may be of any size or type acceptable to the engineer, provided the unit’s body is shaped to enable the ready and accurate determination of the content’s volume.
and with written approval from the engineer, materials paid for by volume may be measured by weight, with the measured units of weight converted to units of volume through use of a conversion factor agreed to before the measurement and payment. Also with advance approval, materials paid for by weight may be measured by volume.
subject to correction for foaming, shipping loss, or other reasons for nonuse. Materials will be measured using net weights or converted to weights from volumes. Asphalt volumes will be measured at 60 °F [15.5 °C] or, when measured at other temperatures, corrected to the equivalent volume in accordance with the Materials Testing Manual.

in the work, including necessary travel time within the limits of the project.
109.1.4 Weighing Procedures and Equipment
109.1.4.1 General
1 Weigh material obtained from an available source or a noncommercial, contractor- furnished source on computerized scales. Material obtained from a commercial source may be weighed on a computerized or noncomputerized scale.
2 Provide and maintain scales or use certified, permanently-installed commercial scales. The engineer will approve scales for use and document the findings on “Scale Check and Daily Truck Tares” (Form E- 71). The department will pay for materials measured or
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
proportioned by weight [mass] after quantities have been weighed on accurate scales and the results properly documented. The department will only pay for the weight [mass] of material incorporated in the work. The department will not pay for quantities weighed on belt scales.
3 Ensure the scale’s accuracy to within 0.5 percent of the true weight throughout the scale’s range of use. The engineer will verify the scale’s accuracy by observing the contractor check the scale before its first use and as often thereafter as the engineer deems necessary. Provide, for this purpose, ten or more 50-pound [25 kg] weights or o ther calibration devices recommended by the scale’s manufacturer.
4 Ensure that vehicles hauling materials to, from, or on the project bear a plainly legible, unique, identification number. The engineer will direct the daily taking of vehicle tare weights and record the results on “Scale Check and Daily Truck Tares” (Form E-71).
5 If applicable, ensure that the system is capable of securing the poises in position and does not allow inadvertent change of position.
109.1.4.2 Documentation
1 If computerized scales are used, provide computer generated weigh tickets. Provide computer generated recap sheets using the same computer and data that produced the individual weigh tickets.
2 The contractor may use the department’s “Recap Sheet” (Form E-78).
3 Document the weight [mass] on a separate, sequentially numbered weigh ticket containing, at a minimum, items 1, 2, 3, and 4 in the following list. Provide the ticket to the vehicle driver. At the point of delivery, and before incorporation into the work, the engineer may ask the driver for the load’s ticket; loads without a ticket will be rejected. The department will pay for materials on the basis of daily recap (recapitulation) sheets produced by the contractor and given to the engineer. The department will treat the recap sheets as source documents for the purpose of payment; include the following on each sheet:
sequence numbers;
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
completeness of the facts represented; and
4 If material is shipped by rail, the supplier’s net weight [mass] shown on the invoice may be accepted as documentation for payment. If material is shipped by truck and the invoice shows the combined weight [mass] of the truck and material and the weight [mass] of the empty truck, the supplier’s invoice weight [mass] may be accepted as documentation for payment.
109.1.4.3 Scales
1 The engineer may designate the scale’s location.
2 Ensure that scale intervals are uniformly spaced throughout the marked length of the beam, dial, or digital readout; do not exceed 0.1 percent of the scale’s nominal rated capacity; and denote increments of at least 1 lb [0.5 kg]. Do not use spring balances.
3 Arrange beams, dials, platforms, and other equipment so that they can be viewed safely and conveniently by the operator and inspectors.
4 Ensure sufficient size and capacity of platform scales to enable setting the total tare weight [mass] on the tare bar and determination of the net weight [mass] on the second bar and to enable the simultaneous weighing of a tractor and at least one hauling unit; additional hauling units may be weighed separately while attached to the tractor. Install and maintain scales so that the platform is level, with rigid bulkheads at each end. Hauling units may be weighed separately if the total weight [mass] of the tractor and all hauling units weighed together is within 0.5 percent of the sum of the combined unit weight [mass] of the individual units. Place all axles on the scales when weighing a hauling unit separately.
5 The department will not allow the use of strain gauges on platform scales.
6 Use pressure-activated load cell systems. Ensure a gross carrying capacity sufficient to support a fully loaded weighing container without loss of accuracy and to maintain the loaded scale’s center of gravity between the load supports. A weighing container may be supported by a single load cell or multiple load cells with a scale lever system or multiple load cells. Use cell supports designed to prevent lateral or other nonaxial forces; cells sealed for environmental protection; and systems designed to resist the following:
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
7 Ensure a convenient means, either automatically or by the operator, for checking both the load cell circuit and the signal conditioning and load display circuit. Ensure that digital weight [mass] indicators have sufficient range so as to be capable of displaying the scale’s capacity when fully loaded. Ensure that digital readouts can be easily read under normal operating conditions.
109.1.4.4 Corrections for Inaccuracy
1 The engineer will order the use of scales registering more than 0.5 percent over true weight [mass] stopped immediately. For payment, the weights [mass] of all loads and materials received since the time the scale was last verified as accurate on “Scale Check and Daily Truck Tare” (Form E-71) will be reduced by the percentage of error greater than 0.5 percent of true. The engineer will allow the scale’s return to use only after the scale has been adjusted and verified as accurate.
2 Adjust scales registering less-than-true weights [mass]; the department will not pay additionally or otherwise correct for loads or materials weighed on such scales.
109.1.4.5 Payment
1 The cost of providing facilities and equipment for the accurate weighing or proportioning of materials is incidental to the associated pay items in the contract. Include the cost in, and distribute reasonably among, the unit bid prices for associated items.
109.2Scope of Payment
1 The department provides either direct or incidental payment for contract work, under the pay items shown in the “Proposal” (Form E-91).
t Payment. Payment is provided directly under a pay item shown in the “Proposal” (Form E-91) when one of the following applies:
1.1The work is measured in the Measurement and Payment subsection of the
specification ordering the work, and the “Proposal” (Form E-91) contains a pay item for the work with the same three- digit number as the section of the Standard Specifications or the same first digit of the number as the division of the supplementary specification or special provision ordering the work.
1.2The Measurement and Payment subsection of the specification ordering the
work references another section for measuring and paying for the work, and the “Proposal” (Form E-91) contains a pay item for the work from the referenced section.
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
a pay item or items but which is not directly measured and paid for, or for which the contract does not include a pay item, is an incidental obligation of the contractor. The department does not directly pay for such work; instead, payment is included under the associated pay items in the “Proposal” (Form E-91). This includes instances when the specification ordering the work:
2.1References another specification for performing the work and
2.2Does not reference another specification for direct payment of the work
2 The department will pay, and the contractor agrees to accept, the compensation provided for by the contract’s pay items as full payment for furnishing all resources needed to perform the work in a complete and acceptable manner and for all risk, loss, damage, or expense arising from the conduct or nature of the work.
3 Include the work, materials, labor, equipment, tools, and incidentals required to complete the construction of an item of work in accordance with the contract, in the pay item established in the contract for the work.
4 If the Measurement and Payment clause in the contract relating to a unit bid price in the “Proposal” (Form E-91) requires that the unit bid price cover and be considered compensation for a certain item of work or material essential to the item, the department will not measure or pay for this same work or material under any other pay item in the contract.
5 Payment for adhering to agreements included in the contract is incidental to the associated pay items in the contract; include the cost of adherence in, and distribute reasonably among, the unit bid prices for associated items in the bid.
6 The department will pay for the actual quantities of work performed and accepted, or material furnished, in accordance with the contract. The department will not pay for work performed in excess of that specified, staked, ordered, or otherwise authorized.
7 The department will not pay for an item until material requirements have been met and the engineer has received the required certifications in accordance with Subsection 800.1, Manufactured Product Certifications.
8 For pay items that include the word “Reset” in the title, the removal of existing items that will be reinstalled is incidental to the ordered item of work. The department will measure and pay directly for removing other items in accordance with the Measurement and Payment section of the specifications ordering the work.
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
109.3Compensation for Altered Quantities
109.3.1 General
1 If the accepted quantities for an item of work vary from the quantities estimated in the “Proposal” (Form E-91), the department will pay for the accepted quantities at the pay item prices. Except as provided in Subsection 104.2, Contract Amendments, the department will not allow for increased expense, loss of expected reimbursement, or loss of anticipated profits suffered or claimed by the contractor from any cause, including directly from alterations or indirectly from unbalanced allocation by the bidder of overhead expense among the pay times.
2 The department will reimburse the contractor, at the documented actual cost, for work or materials already placed or furnished in accordance with the contract but that becomes unnecessary because of a later alteration in quantities.
3 The department will reimburse the contractor for increases in material costs for overruns of plan quantity for: corrugated metal pipes, steel piling, dowel bars, tie bars for concrete pavement, corrugated guardrail, wood and steel posts for guardrail, reinforced concrete pipes, geotextiles, geogrid, paving fabric, wood and steel fence posts, fence wire, seed, and mulch.
4 To qualify for a price adjustment, the following will apply:

9 Notify the department in accordance with Subsection 104.2.7, Contractor- Engineer Notification, within 10 calendar days if the engineer’s decision is not acceptable.
109.3.2 Eliminated, Reduced, or Unused Pay Items
1 The engineer may choose to eliminate a pay item or reduce the quantity of a pay item. When the engineer notifies the contractor that a pay item will not be used or reduced, the department will reimburse the contractor for actual work done and all costs incurred (including mobilization of materials) before the notification or ef fective date of the “Contract Amendment” (Form E-61). If materials have been delivered to the project and cannot be returned to the supplier, the department will pay for the materials at the invoice price plus 5 percent for overhead and take ownership. The department will not pay for lost or anticipated profits resulting from the elimination or nonuse of a pay item.

Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
E-61); such action does not invalidate the contract.
item by using a “Contract Amendment” (Form E-61).
109.3.3 Crushed Aggregate
1 If the original quantity of crushed aggregate material as estimated in the contract, or as altered by a “Contract Amendment” (Form E-61) or in writing by the engineer, is later reduced more than 2 percent, and the engineer fails to notify the contractor of the reduction in writing before the material is produced, the department will reimburse the contractor for the actual cost of producing the di fference in quantities. The department requires documentation substantiating the cost and approval by the engineer before such reimbursement.
2 The department will not pay for the production of more material than requested. Excess material produced from a department-furnished source will remain the property of the department.
109.4Extra and Force Account Work
109.4.1 General
The department may direct the contractor to perform unforeseen work necessary to complete the project and pay for such work as specified in the remainder of this subsection and in the order of precedence given.
109.4.2 Contract Prices
1 The engineer will use the contract unit prices if they are representative of the work to be performed.
109.4.3 Negotiated Prices
1 The engineer and the contractor may negotiate new unit or lump sum prices by using a “Contract Amendment” (Form E-61) before the work is performed.
109.
4.4Force Account
1 The engineer may direct the contractor to perform work under force account. The department’s payment to the contractor for such work is compensation-in- full and will be determined as follows:
engaged specifically and solely in force account work, the department will pay the cost of those employees’ wages at the rates shown on the payroll (but not more
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
than the rates for comparable work performed by current employees on the project), plus 66 percent to cover overhead, property damage and liability insurance, workers’ compensation insurance premiums, unemployment insurance contributions, and social security taxes. The department will also pay the actual costs of health, pension, and other bona fide fringe benefits required by collective bargaining agreements or otherwise applicable to the personnel involved. The department will pay based on the actual hours of labor, to the nearest recorded one- half hour each day.
use by the engineer and incorporated into the work, includin g transportation charges (exclusive of equipment rentals), plus 15 percent. The department will not issue payment without r eceipt of invoices substantiating the material and transportation costs. If materials are taken from the contractor’s stock, provide a statement certifying that the materials were taken from stock, that the quantity claimed was used, and that the price and transportation claimed represent actual costs.
the engineer. The engineer requires fully operational equipment of a size and capacity to perform the work. The engineer may approve the use of equipment not meeting this requirement if furnished by the contractor at reduced prices that are mutually agreed upon. The contractor and the engineer will agree on whether to use equipment already available on the project or to lease equipment.
The department will pay for equipment based on actual hours of use, recorded to the nearest one-half hour each day. If the total period of operation within a day is less than one hour, the department will consider the time as one full hour.
F urnish an “Equipment Rental Rate Determination” (Form E- 67B), with the “Equipment Data” portion of the form completed for each item of equipment used.
In determining payment rates, the department will pay for rental of the contractor’s own equipment at rates given in the Rental Rate Blue Book for Construction Equipment, volumes 1-4, published by Equipment Watch, adjusted both regionally for Wyoming and for equipment age.
For each piece of equipment, the department will establish its payment rate on the “Equipment Rental Rate Determination” (Form E-67B) submitted by the contractor, using Blue Book rates; it will maintain that initial rate for the duration of the project.
In determining equipment rental rates, the department will include power control units and basic attachments and accessories already on the rented equipment, even if a particular attachment is not actually used. The department will pay for
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
additional accessories that may be needed using the rental rate calculation procedure for the basic equipment plus the Blue Book operating costs.
Exclusive of costs for the operator, the department calculates the hourly rental rate for a piece of equipment by adding two distinct components, both derived from the Blue Book—a rental rate and an operating rate, as follows:
3.1Rental Rate. Includes depreciation, taxes, major overhaul and repairs,
overhead, interest, regional adjustment, equipment age adjustment, insurance, and storage. The hourly rental rate is computed by dividing the equipment’s Blue Book monthly rate by 176, to establish the hourly rate, and then multiplying by Wyoming’s regional adjustment factor and the rate adjustment factor for the equipment’s age, as follows:
rental rate (hourly) = 𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀𝑀ℎ𝑙𝑙𝑙𝑙 𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟 𝑀𝑀𝑟𝑟
76 x regional adj. x age adj.
3.2Operating Rate. Includes fuel, lubricants, labor service and maintenance,
field repairs, tires, and other expendable items needed for continuous and efficient operation. Computed as:
operating rate = Blue Book est. operating cost per hour
3.3Total Hourly Rental Rate. The sum of a piece of equipment’s rental and
operating rates, exclusive of operator costs:
total hourly rate = rental rate + operating rate
The department will not adjust the total hourly rate for fuel costs or horsepower differences from standard engine ratings. If the equipment is not located on the project, and is leased from an outside agency for the force account work only, then the department will use the lease agreement rate or lump sum price as the rental rate. If the equipment is located on the project, and is leased from an outside agency for contract work other than force account work, the department will determine a rental rate in accordance with preceding paragraphs 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3.
For equipment present on the worksite as a part of normal project work, the department includes mobilization costs in the mobilization item on the “Proposal” (Form E-91) and will not pay additional mobilization for use of the equipment on force account work.
The department will pay actual “move in” and “move out” transportation costs for a piece of equipment not available on the project, if the equipment is moved by another vehicle. The department will pay the total hourly rental rate for
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
equipment moved to the project site under its own power and for equipment moved within the limits of the project.
3.4The department may, for its own convenience, approve payment for equipment
standby time. The department will pay for such time at 50 percent of the equipment’s rental rate; it will use the standby rate when the engineer has ordered that equipment be made available for forc e account work but the equipment is idle for reasons not the fault of the contractor. The engineer will determine the standby duration when initially approving the equipment for standby time. The department will not pay for more than 8 hours per day or 40 hours per week of standby , nor will it pay for standby on Sundays or holidays.
already covered by or inherent to the contracted scope of work (such as general superintendence, use of small hand tools, or the provision of storage facilities).
Force Account Record” (Form E-67A); review and sign this record each day. After completing the work, prepare and give the engineer the original and one copy of the “Force Account Record” (Form E-67), detailed as follows:
5.1Date, daily hours, total hours, rate, and extension for each classification of
laborers and foremen;
5.2Date, daily hours, total hours, rental rate, and extension for each code
designation unit of machinery and equipment;
5.3Quantities of materials, prices, and extensions, supported with invoices;
5.4Transportation charges for materials, supported with invoices; and

that the contractor then subcontracts, the department will pay in accordance with the provisions of this su bsection, Subsection 109.4.4, Force Account. As reimbursement for its own administrative expenses, the contractor may add 5 percent to the amount of the subcontractor’s billing for the work.
in nature or requires a specialist, the work may be paid for based on a contractor or subcontractor invoice. The department prefers invoices itemized by labor,
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
material, and equipment rental costs but may accept non- or partially itemized invoices if full itemization is impractical or not standard practice for the work or service. As full reimbursement for its own administrative expenses, the contractor may add 5 percent to a subcontractor’s invoice.
7.1Minor Work. The value of force account work performed as invoice work will
not be allowed to exceed 100 percent of the dollar value established in the contract for the pay item Force Account Work. No single invoice or type of work will be allowed to exceed 50 percent of the dollar value established in the contract for the pay item Force Account Work.
7.2Specialist Work. If the engineer and the contractor agree that an item of work
or service requires skills, tools, or equipment unavailable within the contractor’s or authorized subcontractors’ organizations, the contractor may use a specialist to perform the work or service. If a contractor is required to perform specialized fabrication or machining in a shop facility away from the project, the department may accept the charges for that portion of the contractor’s work as an invoice billing to which 5 percent has been added. The department will base its payment for specialty work or service on current market price.
109.4.5 Payment
1 The department will pay as follows:
Pay Item
Pay Unit Measure to the Nearest Pay to the Nearest
Force Account Work $$ 0.01 $$ 0.01 $$
109.5Monthly Progress Payment
109.5.1 General
1 The department will make payments at least once each month. Additional payments may be made if the work total exceeds $5,000 and a request is made by the contractor. Payments will be based on the engineer’s estimates of the value of work performed and materials complete-in-place, in accordance with the contract, and for materials delivered, in accordance with Subsection 109.6, Payment for Material on Hand. The contractor may choose cut-off dates of the 1st, 10th, or 20th of the month for the progress payments.
109.5.2 Contractor’s Payment to Subcontractors
1 The department requires the contractor to pay subcontractors promptly for their work upon receipt of payment for the associated work from the department. After the first monthly progress payment to the contractor, the engineer will make no further payment
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
until the contractor submits for each subcontractor performing work the previous month one of the following:
Subcontract Payments” processed in the department’s construction management system (CMS) indicating the subcontractor’s receipt of payment.
that demonstrates good cause for not making the required payment.
2 The department requires the contractor to obtain an approved “Certification of Subcontract Payments” for all subcontractors within 14 calendar days of the subcontractor’s receipt of payments. If within this period the subcontractor fails to accept the “Certification of Subcontract Payments” in the department’s CMS and the engineer accepts in writing the contractor’s documentation of the failure, the department will consider the failure good cause for the contractor to withhold further payment to the subcontractor until the “Certification of Subcontract Payments” is accepted. Notify the subcontractor of this action in writing.
3 Within 14 calendar days of completion of a subcontractor’s work and after the requirements of the subcontract agreement are met, pay the subcontractor the remaining amount due. Complete a final payment “Certification of S ubcontract Payments” and obtain acceptance by the subcontractor in the department’s construction management system.
109.5.3 Contractor-Subcontractor Disputes
1 If an issue involving payment by the contractor to a subcontractor becomes the subject of dispute, the party (contractor or subcontractor) raising the dispute is responsible for promptly submitting a written description of the dispute to the engineer. State clearly who the dispute is between, the reason for the dispute, the dollar amount involved, and other pertinent information.
2 Upon receipt of the written notice, the engineer will withhold the amount in dispute from the next monthly progress payment. The contractor and subcontractor are responsible for settling their dispute. Upon written notification to the engineer that the dispute is settled, signed by all parties involved in the dispute, the department will pay the disputed amount in the next monthly progress payment.
3 If the contractor and the subcontractor fail to resolve the dispute, the department will consider both parties in default of the contract. The department may deny the parties future bid envelopes, in accordance with Subsection 102.3, Bid Envelope and Electronic Bid System Device, and it may not approve their performance of future subcontract work, in accordance with Subsection 108.1, Subletting of Contract.
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
109.6Payment for Material on Hand
1 The department may pay for materials stockpiled or stored for later use on the project and for which the contractor provides acceptable documentation indicating the material meets contract requirements. Stockpiled or stored materials may be located on the project or at acceptable, bonded facilities elsewhere, which the department reserves the right to inspect. The department will not make such payment without a written request received at least 10 calendar days before the date of the next scheduled progress payment and may not pay more than 65 percent of the item’s original bid extension. Include with the written request the following information as appropriate:
or other information required by the engineer. The engineer may exceed the 65 percent limit if adequate documentation can be provided.
and transport costs, if applicable.
2 Payment for stockpiled or stored materials does not constitute acceptance, and the department may later reject materials for which it has made such payment.
109.7Mobilization
109.7.1 General
1 The department will pay for the costs of mobilizing the resources needed to prepare for the start of work. Mobilization includes but is not limited to the following:

Mobilization, regardless of the fact that the contractor may have shut down the work on the project or moved equipment away from the project and then back again.
for mobilization is not an accurate pay out for the Mobilization, the percentages may be changed.
109.8Final Quantities
1 After the project has been accepted in accordance with Subsection 1 13.4, Final Acceptance, the engineer will prepare final quantities, in which all prior monthly progress payments are subject to correction, and it will then be given to the contractor for approval. The engineer will send the contractor for review a copy of the final quantities using USPS certified mail, “Return Receipt Requested.” Notify the department in accordance with
Measurement and Payment SECTION 109
Subsection 104.2.7, Contractor- Engineer Notification, within 30 calendar days of receipt if the final quantities are not acceptable.
109.9Final Payment and Executed Forms
1 The department will advertise the project as complete after the physical work is complete and the contractor has submitted all documentation required by the contract and agreed with the final estimated quantities, and notified of all assessments. Forty-one days after the department first advertises the project as complete, the department will pay the contractor the remaining sum due.
