costs or expenditure which may arise as a result of the Contractor’s failure to comply with these requirements and the regulations of any relevant Authority.
5.3 It shall be assumed that the Contractor is conversant with the requirements outlined in 5.2. Should
any requirements, by-laws or regulation, which contradicts the requirements of this Document, apply or become applicable during the course of the Works, such requirements, by-law or regulation shall overrule this Document and the Contractor shall immediately inform the Engineer of such a contradiction. Under no circumstances shall the Contractor carry out any variations to the installation in terms of such contradictions without obtaining the written permission to do so from the Engineer.
6.0 Standards and Quality of Work 6.1 As the Wiring Code lays down strict requirements for complying with SANS standards, a compulsory
specification published in a government gazette, or otherwise approved in terms of the Wiring Code, no detailed list of Standards will be scheduled herein. However, portions of the Works falling outside the scope of the Wiring Code shall comply fully with the latest versions of the applicable standards and codes issued by the SANS or, in the absence of such standard, with an acceptable international standard. Any reference to a particular standard may be given for guidance/clarification only; this shall not relieve the Contractor from complying with all relevant standards in their entirety.
6.2 All components shall be new and of the best available quality and of the class most suitable for the
purpose and environment for which they are intended. The whole installation shall be extremely reliable and all parts shall be of such material as will ensure that they are capable of withstanding variations in temperature and humidity arising under working conditions without distortion or deterioration or setting up of undue strain on any part.
Any particular make or model of equipment referred to in the Documentation is for guidance purposes only in setting standards/types/performances required; equipment that is equal or superior in all respects, and to the approval of the Engineer, may be offered by Tenderers. No reference to any particular make of any equipment shall be construed as that equipment having been selected by the Engineer or Client and the Contractor shall be fully responsible for the guarantee and performance of such equipment.
Only equipment and materials with a proven track record in similar applications will be considered.
6.3 Equipment and components of a similar class, such as wiring accessories, switch disconnector units
etc, shall be of the same make, pattern, and where applicable, colour, throughout. 6.4 The Work shall comply with the requirements of the Documentation, but where it may become
necessary to carry out the Work in a different manner; the Contractor shall first obtain the approval of the Engineer in writing.
In cases where items offered by Tenderers are not in accordance with the contract Documentation, the deviation/s must be fully detailed, irrespective of whether a special form is included for this purpose or not, and such details shall accompany the tender submission in the form of a covering letter, or on the form provided. Merely stating ‘as (manufacturer’s name / item)’, or submission of manufacturer’s pamphlets etc. is not acceptable, will not be considered part of any offer and will be ignored. Where no details are submitted, in a covering letter, or on a form provided, the offer shall be deemed to comply fully with the Works Documentation and the successful Tenderer/Contractor shall be liable for performance strictly in accordance with all specifications and conditions.
6.5 The complete Work shall be carried out by qualified, highly trained, skilled and competent operatives
to the highest standard of workmanship. The minimum requirement is that a permanent on-site electrician whether working alone or leading the Contractor’s workforce, and who must be an ‘A’ Grade artisan as determined by the Department of Labour, is to be the appointed artisan who shall be responsible for the day to day installation work. An adequate number of workmen shall be employed at all times to ensure satisfactory progress of the Works in accordance with the overall pace of the project and/or in harmony with any Works programme set by the Architect, Main Contractor or Engineer, etc.
The Contractor shall liaise and cooperate with any other contractor(s) whose work is related to, close to or build into with the Works as detailed herein and shall coordinate the Work to avoid fouling,
GROENVLEI SECONDARY SCHOOL ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATION
5
unsatisfactory setting out etc. Any failure by other contractors to collaborate with the Contractor herein shall be immediately reported in writing to the Engineer and Main Contractor.
The Work shall at all times and for the full duration of the Contract, be carried out under the management and supervision of a skilled and competent representative of the Contractor who will be authorised to receive and carry out instructions on behalf of the Contractor and to attend site meetings.
7.0 Rejection of Inferior Work and Materials All inferior work or work containing inferior material shall be rejected by the Engineer whereupon the
Contractor shall immediately remove and rectify the faulty work as necessary and bear all costs in connection therewith.
8.0 Drawings and Samples 8.1 Tenderers may be required to submit for approval, comment or records samples of materials,
apparatus or components, and also drawings, schematic diagrams or technical details, including calculations, upon which their design and/or offer is based before any contract is awarded. Such details may also be called for during the course of the Contract prior to installation. Any approvals given or comments made shall be on the generality of the scheme and shall not relieve the Contractor of his responsibility to ensure full compliance with all performance and regulatory criteria.
NOTE: A request for submission of samples or drawings does not imply that the Tenderer’s
quotation will necessarily be accepted. 8.2 Drawings shall be clearly marked “WORKING DRAWINGS FOR APPROVAL”, or as otherwise
applicable. Samples shall be remain on site until completion and taking over of the Works or, with the Engineer’s approval, the samples may be embodied within the installation.
8.3 All expenses in connection with the supply and return of the drawings and samples shall be borne by
the Tenderer/Contractor. 9.0 Guarantee 9.1 All equipment supplied and all work performed shall be guaranteed against defective operation, poor
design (where designed by the Contractor, or in components / assemblies with inherently poor design), and unacceptable / faulty workmanship, all as determined by the Engineer, for a period of 12 months after commissioning, handover and Client acceptance.
Any faults found during the guarantee period shall be timeously repaired or replaced by the Contractor, including peripheral damage/disturbance (e.g.: wall finishes etc damaged during the course of repairs), at his own expense, excluding mis-use and abuse by others and fair wear and tear. Discharge type lamps shall be included in the 12 month guarantee period; however, incandescent lamps shall carry a 3 month guarantee.
The Contractor is required to carry out any remedial work under the guarantee at times and in a manner which will cause the least disruption to the Client’s, or other occupant’s, operations.
9.2 The Contractor shall ensure that he has access to sufficient spare components for all equipment
readily available to forestall any delays in repairing the installation. 10.0 Operating and Maintenance Details Two complete sets of technical manuals complete with spares schedules, as-fitted layout drawings,
schematic wiring diagrams and operating and general maintenance information, bound in hard-cover ring binders shall be prepared by the Contractor and delivered to the Client at or before final handover. A full ‘As-Built’ set of drawings shall also be submitted to the Engineer for record purposes.
The main and individual distribution board (DB) single line diagrams shall be brought up to ‘As-Built’
status and copies placed in the technical manual. A further copy of the main single line diagram shall be mounted in a glass-fronted frame and hung in a suitable position in the main LV room. Copies of
GROENVLEI SECONDARY SCHOOL ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATION
6
the distribution board diagrams shall be folded (or reduced) to A4 size and placed in an A4 sized perspex fronted frame or document pocket in the applicable DB. Such frames or pockets shall be fabricated from 1,2mm pre-galvanised steel and spot welded to the DB (usually to the inside of the DB door).
This documentation shall be submitted to the Engineer for comment and approval prior to handing
over to the Client. It is therefore advisable to submit the details in draft format so that any amendments/corrections can be easily incorporated.
11.0 Inspection and Testing of Works 11.1 The Contractor shall attend upon the Engineer as reasonably required for Work inspection. Normally,
inspection of Work in progress will take place on the same day as the general site meeting, or such other times as the Engineer may reasonably require. Handing-over inspections will be done at the completion of the Contractor’s testing, issuing of the Certificate of Compliance by the Contractor’s accredited person, livening the installation by the Supply Authority, commissioning of the installation and upon making a written request for the Engineer to carry out an initial handover inspection.
Where the installation is to be switched on and taken over in portions, the Certificate of Compliance shall be limited to that particular part of the Work. New Certificates of Compliance shall be completed for remaining phases of the project as applicable and the Supply Authority’s permission formally obtained to switch electricity to those areas.
The Contractor shall, prior to requesting the Engineer to undertake an initial handover inspection, do a full, complete and proper inspection of his Work to ensure that everything is absolutely complete and in accordance with the Documentation. Following this inspection, and rectification of any faults in parts of the installation that may be required, the Contractor shall make a written request to the Engineer for a handover inspection. Any faults still found in the installation shall be listed by the Engineer and handed to the Contractor who shall attend to all faults within a reasonable period as decided by the Engineer except that this period will in no circumstance exceed 14 days. Once all listed faults have been rectified, the Contractor shall again request the Engineer in writing to carry out a final handover inspection.
Upon the successful completion of a handover inspection and the issuing of a handover certificate by the Engineer, the responsibility for the security of the installation, or part thereof, shall be deemed to be with the Client.
Under no circumstances will any inspection by the Engineer and/or, if appointed, the Electrical Clerk of Works of Resident Engineer, relieve the Contractor of his obligations in terms of the Documentation.
11.2 On completion of the installation, or such part thereof as may be determined by the Engineer, the
Contractor shall carry out installation testing and inspection in accordance with Part 8 of SANS 10142-1:2003 and/or any other relevant Standard.
The result of these tests, duly certified by the Contractor, shall be submitted to the Engineer in the form of a typed test-result certificate. No testing for acceptance purposes will be carried out by the Engineer until this is received.
Upon receipt of the test certificate, the Engineer will arrange to carry out acceptance tests and to witness commissioning procedures, including load-balance, phase rotation, bonding and labelling checks. If any faults are found in the installation, a list of those immediately noticed will be handed to the Contractor by the Engineer. The Contractor shall forthwith rectify such faults and issue a further test certificate endorsed “RE-TEST” with all reasonable despatch whereupon the Engineer will carry out further check-tests.
Any list of faults issued by the Engineer shall not be regarded as final, but given only for the assistance of the Contractor who will be bound to exercise all necessary diligence in their rectification and to check for any other faults and to rectify same.
The Contractor shall supply all necessary testing instruments for carrying out tests, including, but not limited to: insulation tester, earth loop-impedance tester, clip-on ammeter (e.g.: for load-balance
GROENVLEI SECONDARY SCHOOL ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATION
7
testing), earth-leakage tester, etc. Where there is reason to doubt the accuracy of the instruments, the Contractor shall arrange for tests to check their accuracy.
11.3 Where cast-in conduit is installed, the Contractor shall thoroughly check his layout, fastness etc, well
before any concrete is poured. The Engineer shall be informed by the Contractor in writing that he is ready for a check-inspection, giving the Engineer not less than 48 hour notice (usually by telefax and or email). A qualified operative of the Contractor shall stand by at all times when concrete is being poured so that any conduits or boxes that may become loose, displaced etc can be refixed.
11.4 If it is necessary for the Engineer, his agents or assigns, to spend extraordinary time in respect of
checking, testing, inspection or any other matter due to the Contractor’s default or unsatisfactory attendance all costs of the Engineer in obtaining remedy shall be for the Contractor’s account. For example, if the Contractor failed to carry out his own prior testing in a reasonable and diligent manner, or to check cast-in conduits properly before calling the Engineer to undertake a check-inspection, thus necessitating further visits and/or extra time incurred, costs of the Engineer will be charged to the Contractor. These costs will be deducted from the Contractor’s claims, or shall be claimed by submission of an account. Engineer’s claims for wasted time, including disbursements, shall be based on the applicable Department of Public Works Rates for Reimbursable Expenses.
12.0 Technical and Installation Requirements 12.1 Main Electrical Supply
The Contractor must make his own arrangements concerning the supply of electrical power and water for construction purposes. No direct payment will be made for the provision of electrical, power, water and other services. The cost of providing these services will be deemed to be included in the Contractor’s offer for the various items of work for which these services are required. In instances where the incoming main supply from the Supply Authority is at low voltage (LV), requirements of the Supply Authority with regard to method of incomer connection, earthing, testing/approval of main circuit breaker etc, must be strictly adhered to.
The Supply Authority’s requirements for their metering must be complied with and all facilities, space, bus-bar links for current transformers (CTs), etc, as the case may be, shall be in accordance with their requirements. The Contractor shall be deemed to have made all allowances for the Supply Authority’s requirements in their tender submission. Val Police Station The site currently has 100kVA electricity supply, The Electrical Engineer will make an application to Eskom to upgrade the existing supply to a 200kVA, three phase, 50Hz electricity supply . The upgraded supply and metering point, at the site boundary will be installed by Eskom after the payment of the necessary connection fee. The payment of these fees is the responsibility of the subcontractor. However, the Client or its Agent, reserves the right to make a direct payment to Eskom, at such event the fees tendered by the contractor will be omitted from the Bill of Quantities. The engineer shall be responsible for submitting the necessary application to Eskom for the new connection point.
12.2 MV Equipment and Cabling
Medium voltage (MV) equipment falls outside the scope of this building services specification. Where required, MV cables, MV switchgear and power transformers etc. shall be specified in a supplementary specification and/or drawings.
12.3 Miscellaneous Equipment and Installations

iv) In addition to the current rating, the bars shall be sized to accommodate the prospective fault rating and the cross sectional area of the bars shall be the greater of the calculated sizes. Sizing for fault levels shall be based on the following:
a = 8, 2 x Isc x √t, where:
a = minimum cross section in mm² Isc = prospective short circuit current in kA t = maximum time in seconds to clear fault, subject to a minimum
of 0,2s
v) An earth bus-bar shall be installed at a convenient position, usually near the bottom, along the entire length of DBs with an incomer size of 200 Amps or more, or they may be of shorter but adequate length for smaller DBs. Earthbars need not be supported on insulators. The cross sectional area of the earthbars shall be equal or greater than half the cross sectional area of the incomer feeder cable. Earth terminal strips with screw connections may be used for boards with a maximum incomer size of 100 Amps.
vi) Teed-off neutral bars are to have the same cross sectional area as the sub-
feeder phase bars and shall be mounted in a suitable position adjacent to the switchgear, which they serve. The outgoing connections must match the sequence of the switchgear to which they relate. Neutral terminal strips with screw connections may be used for boards with a maximum incomer/sub-feeder size of 100 Amps. These requirements shall also apply to smaller DBs where such neutral bars are also the main neutral bars.

Should the Subcontractor consider that any material encountered in the excavations is 'hard rock' or 'hard material', he shall immediately notify the Engineer in writing. Failing such notification the excavation shall be assumed to be in 'ordinary material' and shall be measured and valued accordingly. Wherever practicable all excavation in ground other than 'hard rock' and/or 'soft rock' shall be carried out first after which levels will be taken of the exposed 'hard rock' and/or 'soft rock' and agreed upon by the Engineer and the Contractor. Where the Contractor encounters a combination of 'hard rock' and/or 'soft rock' simultaneously in a section of trench and employs explosives or pneumatic tools to remove all the various types of materials in that section of trench, the use of these methods of removal will in no way influence the Engineer's classification of the materials.
15. VALUE ADDED TAX OR OTHER LEGAL DUTIES PAYABLE All items priced in this Bill of Quantities shall exclude any tax applicable to the particular service article equipment or accessory and these net priced items will be used for normal variations on the contract. The tax value will be added at the ruling % rate to all payments and valuations i.e. net price + VAT.
16. ITEMS THAT ARE NOT RE-MEASURABLE
Unless there has been a written variation either in the form of a site instruction or an issue of a revised drawing, conduits and conductors are not re-measurable.

Detailed Technical Specification GROENVLEI SECONDARY SCHOOL - THABAZIMBI Rev. 0 Date: 03 DEC 2019
Page 23
d. 3 m away from any opening (or window) directly above the containers, unless a non-combustible roof (see SANS 10400) is installed between the containers and the opening (or window). However, containers may be placed within the 3 m safety distance provided that the requirements given in 5.2.3.7 are complied with.
All installations shall be fitted with signage indicating no smoking, no naked lights, no unauthorized entry and no cellular phones allowed, i.e. the appropriate pictograms PV 1, PV 2, PV 3 and PV 27 as given in SANS 1186-1. Where cylinder installations are located adjacent to or directly under the roof covering of a building that is of thatched construction or other combustible material, the local authority concerned shall be consulted in terms of the location and placement of the gas containers. In the case of single cylinder connections, where the LPG regulator is fitted into the cylinder valve, a flexible hose shall be attached to the regulator outlet. The free end of the hose shall be fitted onto a hose nozzle which itself shall be affixed to a wall adjacent to the cylinder by means of a holder bat. Where the regulator is affixed to the wall by means of a bracket, the gas supply between the cylinder and the regulator shall be by means of an LPG pigtail with a bull nose fitting at one end, and a threaded connection at the other end to fit the regulator inlet. In the case of multi-cylinder connections, where cylinders are connected by means of a changeover valve, the regulator and changeover switch shall be wall mounted, with the gas supply from each cylinder being by means of individual pigtails. Glazing may be allowed where the window frames are constructed from metal and the total size of the glazing does not exceed 1 m². Glazing shall be of wire woven glass not larger than 450 mm × 450 mm per pane. Such windows shall not be openable. Where more than two containers are used in an installation, the containers shall be connected into a manifold system. A changeover device connected to one container on each side shall not be deemed to be a manifold, however, the safety distances shall still apply. The containers shall be connected to the manifold system by one of the following methods:
a. on a single branch, up to ten containers of size up to and including 113 L (48 kg) with a maximum of 20 cylinders per installation; or
b. on a single branch, up to three containers of size up to and including 500 L (196 kg) with a maximum of 6 containers per installation. NOTE For filling ratios, see SANS 10087-7.

Appliances shall be installed on a firm and level base (this is especially important in the case of refrigerators which require checking with a spirit level during installation). A table or shelf used as a support for an appliance shall be large enough to accommodate the appliance and, unless the support has edges that are flanged upwards, shall provide margins that are wide enough to prevent the appliance from slipping off the support. All appliance supports (including floors, walls and ceilings) shall be strong enough to carry the appliance(s) and all superimposed loads.
Detailed Technical Specification GROENVLEI SECONDARY SCHOOL - THABAZIMBI Rev. 0 Date: 03 DEC 2019
Page 24
Appliances shall be connected to the pipework of an installation in a way that will eliminate undue strain on the pipework and fittings and, if rigid connections are used, the appliances shall also be so rigidly fixed that they are not capable of being moved after their installation. If an appliance needs to be moved for cleaning etc., it shall be connected to the pipework by means of flexible tubing or hose. To prevent the hose or tubing from being ruptured or torn from its mountings, the appliance shall have a restraining mechanism of a length that is shorter than the hose or tube. Tubing and hoses shall comply with the appropriate requirements given in SANS 1539. Appliances shall be installed in such a way as to avoid draughts that are strong enough to extinguish the burners when they are set on "low" flame. Appliances shall not be installed in small, confined spaces that are poorly ventilated. Gas burners require an unrestricted supply of fresh air and when a cooking appliance is being built in, the supply of fresh air for combustion shall not be impeded. Provision shall be made for any accumulations of unburnt gas to disperse safely, and also for the free escape of products of combustion. Where gas appliances that require back ventilation are installed against a wall, there shall be a gap of at least 50 mm between the appliance and the wall. NOTE: For the testing of adjustment of burners, In any bathroom in which a conventional gas water heater (geyser) is installed, the heater shall be flued to the outside and provision shall be made to ensure permanent ventilation. NOTE: The manufacturer's operating instructions should be observed. Vent-free space heaters shall not be installed in separately enclosed bathrooms. Appliances shall be so sited in a room that there is no danger that they could set fire to furnishings (for example, a gas stove shall not be positioned immediately below a combustible shelf or in a position where curtains could be near its cooking top). Where combustible or ignitable material near an appliance is liable to attain ignition temperature or to be exposed to heat damage, provision shall be made to protect such material. The material can be protected by mounting an insulating non-combustible material between the appliance and the combustible material so as to provide an air space of width at least 15 mm. Where built-in kitchen equipment is used, the surfaces of adjacent structures in contact with an appliance shall be of materials that will not deteriorate at temperatures of up to 150 °C. If several appliances are connected to a system, those with the highest rate of gas consumption should be placed nearest to the gas supply point. Alternatively, the supply point should be brought as close as possible to the high-intake appliance(s). A water heater should be placed conveniently close to the sink or bath that it serves and, to minimize loss of heat, the run of hot-water piping should be kept as short as possible. Hotplates that are open underneath shall not be placed on any combustible surface. Alternatively, a combustible surface shall be protected from the heat of the burners. 6.2.13 Lighting appliances shall not be installed in positions likely to cause overheating of walls and ceilings, and deflector plates shall be used where necessary. 2.6.5 Provision for ventilation The incorrect installation or use of LPG appliances in buildings can give rise to a variety of hazardous conditions, such as a build-up of unburnt gas, a high concentration of carbon monoxide and the depletion of oxygen. The provision of ventilation is therefore of vital importance and in this regard special notice shall be taken of the warnings and recommendations given in the use and installation brochures supplied with the appliance. Ventilation provisions and requirements can also be found in SANS 1539.

If the room or space in which a vent-free space heater is to be installed is such that the total heat input rating of the vent-free heater plus any other gas, solid fuel or paraffin appliances in the room, if present, is greater than 0,37 MJ/m3 of the room volume, then permanent ventilation shall be supplied to the room. Where permanent ventilation is required, the minimum cross-sectional area shall be 13 cm² /MJ of the total appliance(s) rated heat input. In determining the room volume to be used by calculating the allowable heat input to comply with the above requirements, adjoining rooms or spaces may be added to the room volume of the room in which the appliance is to be installed, providing that the access to the adjoining room or space is permanently open. Where vent-free heaters are installed in a bedroom, permanent ventilation shall be supplied to the outside atmosphere, regardless of the room size. 2.6.6 Piping, fittings and other components Materials The following pipes and fittings are recommended for general use in installations:
a. solid drawn copper tube with copper or copper alloy fittings; b. un-galvanized seamless mild steel tube with mild steel fittings; c. stainless steel piping with associated fittings; d. brass fittings that are protected against seasonal cracking; e. high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes and fittings (only to be used for gas in the vapour
phase and where the pipes are buried); f. flexible tubing and hose; and g. Composite pressure pipe.
2.6.7 Valves Valves are intended for shutting off the gas supply to (or in) a gas supply line. The valves and valve seats shall be compatible with LPG and certified for use with LPG.
a. Emergency shut-off valves Emergency shut-off valves shall be accessible and unobstructed at all times and should be placed as close as possible to where the main gas pipe enters the building. An emergency shut-off valve may be used as an isolation valve on a single appliance installation. It may be placed inside or outside of the building.
b. Isolating valves
Every fixed appliance shall be equipped with an isolating valve to isolate the individual appliance from the system.
2.6.8 Fixed pipe system The size of a pipe system should be determined by the maximum gas consumption rate of the appliance(s) to be connected (due regard being given to any potential simultaneous demand) and should be large enough to carry the maximum gas flow without excessive pressure loss in the line. Figures 6 to 14 are examples of how the gas pipeline can be connected.

Regulators
a. First-stage regulator
A first-stage regulator delivering an intermediate pressure is normally required where gas draw-off points in an installation are a considerable distance (usually over 9 m) from the container position and the gas demand is heavy. The pressure regulator at the container position is set to deliver at a pressure higher than the appliance operating pressure. This regulator shall be fitted outside of the building as close as possible to the gas supply.
b. Second-stage regulator
A second-stage regulator shall be installed between the first-stage regulator and the appliance. This second-stage regulator may be installed inside a building, however, if it has a pressure relief valve for gas release, it shall be piped to the outside of the building. The breather hole in a regulator casing does not need to be piped to the outside.
c. Single-stage regulator
For a gas installation under 9 m, a single-stage regulator will suffice. These regulators shall not be installed inside the building unless they are fitted direct to a gas container.
2.6.9 Installation and layout of pipework
The following requirements shall be considered and applied in addition to any similar specific details that might be introduced by the installer:
a. HDPE pipes shall be used for the conveyance of LPG vapour only, and shall be buried; b. composite pipe is subject to the following requirements:

6. AREAS REQUIRING SPECIAL ATTENTION
6.1 PIPING
6.1.1 Interconnecting Piping
The sub-Contractor is to allow for all interconnecting piping to be carried out in quality copper tubing in imperial sizes. All piping is to be clean and capped to prevent ingress of dirt. Soft drawn piping may be used in sized up to 15mm OD. The Engineer may require sample welds to be cut out to ascertain that this requirement has been complied with. A nitrogen regulator is to be used for this purpose. Oxygen regulators are not allowed, and direct connection of piping to the nitrogen cylinder is not allowed. Should defects be found, then further samples may be requested by the Engineer. The cost of rectifying defective piping installation will be for the sub-Contractors’ account.
6.1.2 Fitting and Valves
All bends and elbows are to be of long radius type. Allowance for expansion of piping is to be made as per the Engineer’s General Specification. All fitting and valves are to be soldered joints.
6.2 FINISHING & TIDYING
Progressive and systematic finishing and tidying will form an essential part of this contract. Under no circumstances shall spoil, rubble, materials, equipment or unfinished operations be allowed to accumulate unnecessarily and in the event of this occurring the Engineer shall have the right to withhold payment for as long as necessary in respect of the relevant works in the area(s) concerned.
6.3 CONSTRUCTION METHODS
a) Construction shall be carried out in accordance with the Expanded Public Works
Programme (EPWP) guidelines that are aimed at infrastructure and services development coupled with creation of employment and skills training.
b) Labour-based or labour-intensive construction may be defined as the economically efficient employment of as much labour as is technically feasible to a produce as high a standard of construction as demanded by the specification and allowed by the funding available. In other words, projects based on labour-intensive principles aim at devoting the highest feasible proportion of projects costs to unskilled, semi-skilled and skilled labour without jeopardizing the technical quality of the product demanded by the specification.
c) Labour-based methods of construction result in the creation of a significant increase in employment opportunities per unit of expenditure. The intensive employment of labour achieves value for money through innovative techniques of work and management. In particular (i) as far as possible, payment of wages for labour is related to production output: a reasonable “task” is set, upon completion of which the labourer may go home and (ii) employment is either on a daily/casual/temporary basis or in the form of a short-term monthly contract. It is useful to think of labour-based methods as the effective substitution of labour for equipment in construction. This is done in such a way that there is neither an increase in economic cost nor a decrease in quality.
d) The following regulations must be adhered to so as to ensure that the construction methods used are labour-intensive.

i. The remuneration to local labour for hourly-rated employees and/or daily-based work shall be in accordance with the prevailing gazetted rates.
ii. The name, identification number, task performed and hours worked per day for each labourer shall be recorded by the sub-Contractor. These records shall be submitted to the Engineer together with each payment certificate.
e) Bidders are encouraged to utilize the services of locally based sub-Contractors.
6.4 BURGLAR BARS
Burglar bars shall be installed at each external ventilation exhaust louvre which penetrates the facade of the complex.
The bars shall not be less than 15mm round bars, spaced at 125mm centres in both directions and welded into a frame. They are to be hot dipped galvanized after manufacture.
The burglar bar frame should be built into the masonry structures. Alternatively they can be bolted into the masonry structure (independent of any connecting ductwork) and the bolt heads tack welded to ensure they cannot be easily removed. The area of the tack weld is to be touched up with cold galvanizing paint.
A written confirmation that all openings in all the air conditioning and ventilation systems have been protected by the specified burglar bars will be required from the air conditioning sub-Contractor. This certificate is to be provided at the beneficial occupation stage.

6.5 PAINTING
The installation shall be painted in accordance with an approved colour code. Such painting shall be only necessary to those items which would normally be visible when serviced, all mild steel or other components which would otherwise suffer corrosion if unpainted, however, shall be painted with two coats of rust-proof paint whether such components are normally visible or note. Items which are factory painted need not be repainted other than any making good which may be necessary. All plants requiring painting shall be correctly prepared and painted with two coats of enamel gloss after one coast of suitable rust-proof primer and an undercoat.

17. Electrical wiring schematics & control logic;
18. Approvals;
19. Sound levels; and
20. Vibration levels if applicable.
The information above is typically available from the equipment manufacturer on request and is incumbent on the contractor to ensure this is presented to the Engineer for approval. Failure to request for approval of deviation from specification contained in BoQ and/or Technical specification, and/or Project Drawings, and/or Standards (as per Point 4.1 above), shall not absolve the contractor of the requirement to comply and the costs to remedy such shall be borne by the contractor.
4.3 Submittal of shop drawings
The Engineer may only accept Shop Drawings for review that the Contractor has reviewed and approved. Prior to submission to the Engineer, a Contractor is to review and approve all shop drawings. By this review and approval, the Contractor represents that it has determined and verified all field measurements, field construction criteria, materials, catalogue numbers and similar data, and that it has checked and coordinated each Shop Drawing with the requirements of the work and
SOP 012 Rev 3 Uncontrolled Document Page 7 of 9
the contract documents. The contractor is to indicate its review and approval by including the date and the signature of a responsible person on each Shop drawing. The Engineer may require that Shop Drawings be accompanied by a transmittal letter showing date, project title, project number, the contractor's or supplier's address, and the sequence number of each Shop Drawing submitted. Shop Drawings can be submitted in electronic format, in the form of prints as The Engineer or the Project’s Technical Specification may direct. The format in which Shop Drawings are to be submitted may be established at the start of the Project, however this document outlines the minimum standards required. Similarly the format in which Shop Drawings can be returned as having been reviewed or marked up may be established at the start of the Project. At the time of submission, the Contractor is to notify the Engineer in writing of any deviations in the Shop Drawings from the requirements of the contract documents. The Contractor will forward the Shop Drawings to the appropriate members of the Consulting Firm’s team for review. In performing his or her review, The Engineer will only review for conformity to the design concept and for general arrangement. Unless a deviation on the Shop Drawings has been previously approved in writing by the Engineer, such a review by The Engineer does not relieve the contractor from its responsibility for any and all errors or omissions in the Shop Drawings or from its responsibility for meeting all the requirements contained in the contract documents. The Engineer must sign the Shop Drawings and include appropriate wording to indicate the nature of the review, and that the Shop Drawings were reviewed for general conformance only to the design concept and for general arrangement. Unless otherwise directed by The Engineer, a contractor is to make all changes to the Shop Drawings which The Engineer may require to be consistent with the contract documents and resubmit the Shop Drawings. When resubmitting the Shop
Drawings, a contractor is to notify The Engineer in writing of any revisions other than those requested by The Engineer. Equipment wiring and control diagrams are also to be submitted for review by the Engineer, but the approval does not relieve the contractor of the requirement for the correct switching, control logic and associated safeties with such equipment as per Standards stipulated under section
SOP 012 Rev 3 Uncontrolled Document Page 8 of 9

Figure 1: Standard “A” Series Drawing Sizes Long drawings, where necessary for piping, wiring/circuit diagrams, cable run diagrams, etc. shall be prepared with widths equal to the widths of “A” series sheets, as required.
4.3.2 Drawing Scales The requirements of scale settings are as follow:
When using model space, the design must always be full size, i.e. active scale = 1:1.
In the case of non-dimensional drawings such as diagrammatic drawings, the viewport must be scaled to suit the drawing sheet. Different vertical and horizontal scales may be chosen in order to exaggerate a profile or to clarify thin layers of a section.
1:1 1:2 1:51:10 1:20 1:251:100 1:200 1:50

Figure 2: Preferred Drawing Scales
4.3.3 Dimensioning
All detailed dimensions shall be in millimeters and must be of the filled head arrow type.
All notes must have a leader pointing at the detail referred to.
Co-ordinates shall be stated in meters to 3 decimal places.
Dimensioning must be done whilst in model space, and NOT in an active viewport. Dimensions are not to be exploded.
SOP 012 Rev 3 Uncontrolled Document Page 9 of 9
5.0 DESIGN CHANGE REQUESTS
A Design Change Request (DCR) is the only way to materially change the design after Shop Drawing Approval. This Standard Operating Procedure (Document No.: SOP 012) and a DCR form (Document No.: IFQ 042 - Design Change Request) is always to be e-mailed to the project team for clarity of process in design changes requested or found due to change in layouts (i.e. architectural ceiling or floor layouts and clashes with other services) The purpose of a DCR is to give clarity on the impact the change may cause on 1) Overall installation costs, 2) Mechanical & Electrical interfaces (weight, size, power supply, etc.), 3) Get a costing for the change if any, and 4) Who is responsible the costs for the change if any. Complete DCR’s are to be submitted by hard copy or e-mailed to the project Engineer (refer to project specific contact register and organogram). Cost Account holders include for Tenants (Tenant Account), Main Contractor, Subcontractor, Variation Order / Scope Creep (Addition to Subcontractor scope) and Value Engineering (Reduction to subcontractor scope). Design approval may only be signed off by the Engineer whilst cost approval shall be signed by the following:
1. The Engineer (Mechanical, Electrical & Fire Consultant) 2. Project QS and/or Principal Agent (mostly Project Manager) 3. Tenant 4. Main Contractor
Material Changes are:
1. Change in equipment or material quantities (i.e. sprinkler heads, water mains, diffusers, 2. Relocation of units and/or clash avoidance (i.e. coordination on site) 3. Scope change (i.e. change in space usage/size/layout resulting in
equipment/reticulation change in size and specification) 4. Value Engineering (i.e. equipment or material change to save costs)
Note: Alternative equipment, qualifications and omissions must be handled at Tender or shop drawing submission. These must be clearly set out by the contractor and signed off by the Engineer.

SITE SPECIFIC HEALTH AND SAFETY SPECIFICATION FOR THE REHABILITATION OF
GROENVLEI SECONDARY SCHOOL
1.0 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
1.1 Background to the Health and Safety Specification
Historically, the Construction Industry has had poor health and safety record. Due to the complex and
potential dangerous operations being undertaken, there is a risk of incidents and injuries. In many
instances poor adherence to the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) has resulted in severe
consequences for Health and Safety performances. SOIC determined that the highest health and safety
standards will prevail throughout the site and that there will be full commitment from all parties to
achieving best practices recognized internationally.
To achieve this goal SOIC has prepared and published a Site Specific Health and Safety Specification
(SSHSS) for this project. This Health and Safety Specification sets out guidelines and minimum levels of awareness and guidelines for Health and Safety. Responsibility for adherence rests with Contractors and
in particular with all employees who are encouraged to be pro-active. SOIC is committed to ensuring the
highest health and safety standards for all work undertaken on site.
The Site Specific Health and Safety Specification (SSHSS) have been prepared to include in the Tender and Contract Documents for construction work.
The employer’s personnel will be responsible for the auditing of the implementation of the Site Specific
Health and Safety Specification (SSHSS) and maintaining the document control and record systems
associated with this Site Specific Health and Safety Specification.
1.2 Purpose of the Site Specific Health and Safety Specification
The purpose of this site Specific Health and Safety Specification (SSHSS) is to comply with the duties of the Client base on construction regulation 5, to provide health and safety information about specific
project risks known by the client and the Site Specific Health and Safety Specification must be included in
the tender documents. It is also there to assist towards achieving compliance with Occupational Health
and Safety Act No. 85 of 1993 and Regulations in order to reduce incidents and injuries.
The Site Specific Health and Safety Specification (SSHSS) will be implemented during the whole
construction phases of the project.
This will also assist in ensuring that all cost related to the compliance with Occupational Health and
Safety Act No. 85 of 1993 and Regulations as well as this site specific health and safety specification are
taken into consideration at Tender stage.
Contractors as employers are fully responsible and accountable for compliance with all health
and safety requirements.
