Building Plans and Specifications Clause Samples

The 'Building Plans and Specifications' clause defines the requirements and standards for the architectural and engineering documents used in a construction project. It typically outlines who is responsible for preparing, reviewing, and approving the plans and specifications, and may specify the level of detail, format, and compliance with applicable codes or regulations. This clause ensures that all parties have a clear and consistent understanding of the project's design requirements, reducing the risk of misunderstandings, construction errors, or disputes over the scope of work.

Related to Building Plans and Specifications

  • Plans and Specifications After Landlord receives and approves Tenant’s Space Plan as provided above, Tenant will cause Tenant’s Architect to prepare the Plans and Specifications for the Tenant Improvements. Landlord will approve or disapprove (specifically describing any reasons for disapproval) the Plans and Specifications in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receiving them. If Landlord disapproves the Plans and Specifications, Tenant will provide appropriately revised Plans and Specifications to Landlord for approval (or disapproval) within five (5) Business Days on the same basis as set forth above. After Landlord’s approval, Tenant will submit the Plans and Specifications for permits and construction bids. No deviation from the Building Standard will be permitted in the Space Plan or the Plans and Specifications, provided reasonable deviations with respect to the ceiling, lighting, painting, flooring and wall covering may be permitted with Landlord’s approval. Landlord will not approve any deviations which Landlord believes (a) do not conform to applicable codes, ordinances and other Laws or are disapproved by any governmental agency, (b) require services beyond the level normally provided to other tenants in the Building, or (c) are of a nature or quality that are inconsistent with Landlord’s overall plan or objectives for the Building. No approval by Landlord of any deviation constitutes an acknowledgment by Landlord that such deviations are in conformance with applicable codes, ordinances and other Laws. In the event that Landlord’s approval shall be required in this Tenant Improvements Agreement, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Lease, Landlord’s approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

  • Approval of Plans and Specifications The Plans and Specifications will conform to the requirements and conditions set out by applicable law or any effective restrictive covenant, and to all governmental authorities which exercise jurisdiction over the Leased Premises or the construction thereon.

  • Drawings and Specifications 9.1 A complete list of all Drawings that form a part of the Contract Documents are to be found as an index on the Drawings themselves, and/or may be provided to Developer and/or in the Table of Contents. 9.2 Materials or Work described in words that so applied have a well-known technical or trade meaning shall be deemed to refer to recognized standards, unless noted otherwise. 9.3 Trade Name or Trade Term It is not the intention of the Contract Documents to go into detailed descriptions of any materials and/or methods commonly known to the trade under “trade name” or “trade term.” The mere mention or notation of “trade name” or “trade term” shall be considered a sufficient notice to Developer that it will be required to complete the work so named, complete, finished, and operable, with all its appurtenances, according to the best practices of the trade. 9.4 The naming of any material and/or equipment shall mean furnishing and installing of same, including all incidental and accessory items thereto and/or labor therefor, as per best practices of the trade(s) involved, unless specifically noted otherwise. 9.5 Contract Documents are complementary, and what is called for by one shall be binding as if called for by all. As such, Drawings and Specifications are intended to be fully cooperative and to agree. However, if Developer observes that Drawings and Specifications are in conflict with the Contract Documents, Developer shall promptly notify District and Architect in writing, and any necessary changes shall be made as provided in the Contract Documents. 9.6 Figured dimensions shall be followed in preference to scaled dimensions, and Developer shall make all additional measurements necessary for the work and shall be responsible for their accuracy. Before ordering any material or doing any work, each Developer shall verify all measurements at the building and shall be responsible for the correctness of same. 9.7 Should any question arise concerning the intent or meaning of the Contract Documents, including the Plans and Specifications, the question shall be submitted to the District for interpretation. If a conflict exists in the Contract Documents, these Construction Provisions shall control over the Facilities Lease, which shall control over the Site Lease, which shall control over Division 1 Documents, which shall control over Division 2 through Division 49 documents, which shall control over figured dimensions, which shall control over large-scale drawings, which shall control over small-scale drawings. In no case shall a document calling for lower quality and/or quantity of material or workmanship control. However, in the case of discrepancy or ambiguity solely between and among the Drawings and Specifications, the discrepancy or ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of the interpretation that will provide District with the functionally complete and operable Project described in the Drawings and Specifications. 9.8 Drawings and Specifications are intended to comply with all laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations of constituted authorities having jurisdiction, and where referred to in the Contract Documents, the laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations shall be considered as a part of the Contract Documents within the limits specified. 9.9 As required by Section 4-317(c), Part 1, Title 24, CCR: “Should any existing conditions such as deterioration or non-complying construction be discovered which is not covered by the DSA-approved documents wherein the finished work will not comply with Title 24, California Code of Regulations, a construction change document, or a separate set of plans and specifications, detailing and specifying the required repair work shall be submitted to and approved by DSA before proceeding with the repair work.”

  • Tenant Improvements Tenants construction of the Tenant Improvements in the Suite 120 Premises shall be subject to the terms of the Work Letter attached to the Lease as Exhibit C, except that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Work Letter: a. The Tenant Improvements in the Suite 120 Premises shall be constructed pursuant to the space plans attached to this First Amendment as Exhibit B (the “Suite 120 Space Plans”) and the tenant improvement specifications attached to this First Amendment as Exhibit C (the “Suite 120 TI Specifications”), which have been approved by both Landlord and Tenant, and the TI Construction Drawings for the Tenant Improvements for the Suite 120 Premises shall be prepared substantially in accordance with the Suite 120 Space Plans and the Suite 120 TI Specifications (and Landlord may not disapprove any matter in connection therewith that is consistent with the Suite 120 Space Plans and the Suite 120 TI Specifications). b. The Tenant Improvement Allowance and the Additional Tenant Improvement Allowance provided for in Section 6(b) of the Work Letter shall not apply with respect to the Suite 120 Premises and Landlord shall provide a tenant improvement allowance with respect to the Tenant Improvements in the Suite 120 Premises, as follows: (i) a “Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance” in the maximum amount of $185.00 per rentable square foot in the Suite 120 Premises, which is included in the Base Rent set forth in the Lease; and (ii) an “Additional Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance” in the maximum amount of $40.00 per rentable square foot in the Suite 120 Premises, which shall, to the extent used, result in Suite 120 TI Rent as set forth in Section 5(c) below. For the avoidance of doubt, (A) the definition of “TI Allowance” in the Work Letter shall include the Tenant Improvement Allowance, the Additional Tenant Improvement Allowance, the Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance and the Additional Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance, as applicable, and (B) in connection with the Tenant Improvements in the Suite 120 Premises, Landlord shall be entitled to Administrative Rent equal to 1.5% of the “hard” TI Costs incurred in connection with such Tenant Improvements and a fee shall be payable to Tenant’s third party project manager, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ LaSalle, not to exceed 1.5% of the “hard” TI Costs of such Tenant Improvements, which amounts shall be payable out of the TI Fund. Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that the Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance and the Additional Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance, to the extent utilized, must be used toward the cost of Tenant Improvements in the Suite 120 Premises. c. Pursuant to the terms of the Work Letter (as amended by this First Amendment), Landlord shall, subject to the terms of the Work Letter (as amended by this First Amendment), make available to Tenant the Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance and the Additional Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance. Commencing on the Rent Commencement Date and continuing thereafter on the first day of each month during the Base Term, Tenant shall pay the amount necessary to fully amortize the portion of the Additional Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance actually funded by Landlord, if any, in equal monthly payments with interest at a rate of 7% per annum over the Base Term, which interest shall begin to accrue on the date that Landlord first disburses such Additional Suite 120 Tenant Improvement Allowance or any portion(s) thereof (“Suite 120 TI Rent”). Any outstanding and unamortized Suite 120 TI Rent remaining unpaid as of the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease shall be paid to Landlord in a lump sum at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. For the avoidance of doubt, Landlord and Tenant acknowledge and agree that Suite 120 TI Rent, if any, shall not be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4(a) of the Lease during the Term.

  • Construction of the Tenant Improvements (a) Tenant shall construct and install the Tenant Improvements in a good and workmanlike manner, in compliance with all Laws and in accordance with this Exhibit B. Tenant’s proposed architect/engineer, general contractor, and fire protection, plumbing, HVAC and electrical subcontractors are subject to Landlord’s prior approval. Promptly following the selection and approval of the architect/engineer, Tenant shall forward to said architect/engineer (and copy Landlord on the transmittal) Landlord’s building standards heretofore delivered to Tenant, and Tenant shall cause said architect/engineer to comply with said building standards. Promptly following the selection and approval of the general contractor, Tenant shall forward to said general contractor (and copy Landlord on the transmittal) Landlord’s fire protection, plumbing, HVAC and electrical specifications and Landlord’s rules of conduct, all of which have been delivered to Tenant prior to the date of this Lease, and Tenant shall cause said general contractor to comply with said specifications and rules of conduct. At Landlord’s request, Tenant shall coordinate a meeting among Landlord (who will reasonably make its representative available for such meeting), Tenant and Tenant’s general contractor to discuss the Building systems and other matters related to the construction of the Tenant Improvements. (b) Promptly following the date hereof, Tenant shall prepare and submit to Landlord a set of permittable construction drawings (the “CDs”), based on the preliminary plans attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 and made a part hereof (the “Preliminary Plans”), covering all work to be performed by Tenant in constructing the Tenant Improvements. Tenant shall have no right to make any Tenant Improvements that would materially alter the exterior appearance of the Building or the Building systems without Landlord’s prior approval. Landlord shall have fifteen (15) days after receipt of the CDs in which to review the CDs and in which to give Tenant written notice of its approval of the CDs or its requested changes to the CDs in reasonably sufficient detail so as to allow Tenant to make the requested changes (provided that Landlord shall not be permitted to request a change that is inconsistent with the Preliminary Plans). If Landlord requests any changes to the CDs, Tenant shall make such changes and shall, within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of Landlord’s requested changes (if any), submit the revised portion of the CDs to Landlord. Landlord shall have five (5) business days after receipt of the revised CDs in which to review said revised CDs and in which to give to Tenant written notice of its approval of the revised CDs or its requested changes thereto. This process shall continue until such time, if at all, that Landlord approves the CDs in accordance with this Section 2. Tenant shall at all times in its preparation of the CDs, and of any revisions thereto, act reasonably and in good faith. Landlord shall at all times in its review of the CDs, and any revisions thereto, act reasonably and in good faith.
