Compensation for Altered Quantities. When the accepted quantities of work vary from the estimated quantities set forth in the Contract but such variance is within the percentage limits set forth in Section 104.02 whether or not there have been any changes in the plans, the Contractor shall accept as payment in full, so far as contract items are concerned, payment at the original contract unit prices for the accepted quantities of work performed. No allowance or other adjustment except as provided for in Section 104.02 will be made for any increased expense, loss of expected reimbursement, or loss of anticipated profits suffered or claimed by the Contractor resulting directly from either such alterations or unbalanced allocation among the contract items of overhead expense on the part of the Contractor and subsequent loss of expected reimbursements therefor or from any other cause except the payment for the actual quantity performed at the original contract unit price. Alterations of plans or character of work involving authorized work orders as provided for in Section 104.02 will be paid for in accordance with the requirements of Section 104.02. When unilateral or bilateral change order work is to be performed that is not covered by a contract unit price, the Contractor shall provide a detailed written estimate that includes the Contractor’s labor, materials and equipment costs only. Overhead and profit shall not be included in this estimate. Labor costs will be based on the rate of wage or scale as set forth in his most recent payroll for each classification of laborers, forepersons, and superintendent(s) who are in direct charge of the specific operation. The Contractor will be paid a maximum of 10 percent of the total cost of the change order work to cover the Contractor's profit and administrative costs.
