Contract Documents and Order of Precedence. The Contract Documents shall consist of the following documents: 1. this Construction Agreement; 2. properly authorized change orders; 3. the Special Conditions of this Contract; 4. the General Conditions of this Contract; 5. the Technical Specifications & Construction Drawings of this Contract; 6. the OWNER's Standard Construction Details; 7. the OWNER's Standard Construction Specifications; 8. the OWNER’s written notice to proceed to the CONTRACTOR; 9. the Contractor’s Cost Proposal; 10. any listed and numbered addenda; 11. the Performance, Payment, and Maintenance Bonds; and, 12. any other proposal materials distributed by the Owner that relate to the Project. These Contract Documents are incorporated by reference into this Construction Agreement as if set out here in their entirety. The Contract Documents are intended to be complementary; what is called for by one document shall be as binding as if called for by all Contract Documents. It is specifically provided, however, that in the event of any inconsistency in the Contract Documents, the inconsistency shall be resolved by giving precedence to the Contract Documents in the order in which they are listed herein above. If, however, there exists a conflict or inconsistency between the Technical Specifications and the Construction Drawings it shall be the Contractor’s obligation to seek clarification as to which requirements or provisions control before undertaking any work on that component of the project. Should the Contractor fail or refuse to seek a clarification of such conflicting or inconsistent requirements or provisions prior to any work on that component of the project, the Contractor shall be solely responsible for the costs and expenses - including additional time - necessary to cure, repair and/or correct that component of the project.
