Compliance with Standards Although the standards for workmanship, material, and equipment have been selected in these specifications as a basis of reference, standards and specifications of the other bank member countries and recommendations of standards international organizations will be acceptable provided they are substantially equivalent to the designated standards and provided furthermore that the contractor submits for approval detailed specifications which he proposes to use. Reference to brand names or catalog numbers if any in these specifications have been made only for that equipment for which it has been determined that a degree of standardization is necessary to maintain certain essential features. And in certain cases such references have also been made for purposes of convenience to specify the requirements, in either case offers of alternative goods, which have similar characteristics and provide performance and quality at lease equal to those specified are acceptable. If the contractor offers materials, equipment, design calculations or tests, which conform to standards other than those specified, full details of the differences between the proposed standards and that specified in so far as they affect the design or purpose of the equipment, are to be supplied by the contractor if called upon to do so by the engineer, where required by the engineer for approval purposes, the contractor shall supply, without charge, duplicate copies of the proposed standards with English translations of the relevant portions. The contractor shall have available in his place of business (or in his supplier’s works) the relevant copies of standards or codes used for the use of the Engineer.
