Interpretation of Construction Documents Clause Samples

The 'Interpretation of Construction Documents' clause defines how ambiguities, inconsistencies, or uncertainties within the project’s drawings, specifications, and related documents should be resolved. Typically, this clause assigns responsibility for interpreting the documents to a designated party, such as the architect or project manager, and may outline a process for seeking clarification or resolving disputes over meaning. Its core function is to ensure that all parties have a clear and authoritative method for addressing questions about the intent or requirements of the construction documents, thereby minimizing misunderstandings and potential conflicts during the project.
