Rock. The term „rock‟ shall mean any natural material which cannot be dislodged by a pick and which can only be removed by the use of compressors or by blasting or wedging. This classification does not include materials such as loose rock, concrete or other materials that can be removed by means other than drilling and blasting or drilling and wedging, but which for reasons of economy in excavating; the Contractor prefers to remove by drilling and wedging. Unless specifically stated hereafter, the Contractor must assume that permission to use explosive to remove rock will be refused and he must therefore price for removing rock by compressors etc. only.
