105.12 Removal of Unacceptable Work and
Unauthorized Work. Unacceptable work is work
that does not conform to the requirements of the
Contract.
Unacceptable work, resulting from any cause,
found to exist prior to the final acceptance of the
work, shall be removed and replaced in an acceptable
manner at the Contractor's expense. The fact that the
Engineer or an inspector may have overlooked the
unacceptable work shall not constitute an accept-
ance of any part of the work.
Unauthorized work is work that was done without
adequate lines and grades having been established
by the Engineer or by the Contractor, work done
contrary to the instructions of the Engineer,work
done beyond the lines shown on the plans, or extra
work done without the Engineer's authorization.
Unauthorized work will not be paid for under the
provisions of the Contract, and may be ordered
removed or replaced at the Contractor's expense.
If the Contractor fails to comply with any order of
the Engineer made under the provisions of this
subsection, the Engineer will have authority to order
unacceptable work remedied or removed an:d re-
placed and unauthorized work removed. The Eng-
ineer will deduct the costs from any monies due or to
become due the Contractor.

105.13 Load Restrictions. The Contractor
shall comply with all legal load restrictions in the
hauling of equipment or materials on public roads
beyond the limits of the project. A special permit will
not relieve the Contractor of liability for damage
resulting from the moving of equipment or material.
The operation of equipment or hauling loads
which cause damage to structures, the roadway or
any other construction will not be permitted.
Hauling of materials over the base course or surface
course under construction shall be limited to prevent
damage to the pavement structure. Loads will not be
permitted on a concrete pavement or structure be.fore
the expiration of the curing period. The Contractor
shall be responsible for the repair of all damage and
related expense resulting from hauling equipment
and construction operations.

105.14 Maintenance During Construction.
The Contractor shall maintain the project during
construction and until the project is accepted. This
maintenance shall constitute continuous and effec.
tive work prosecuted with adequate equipment and
forces so the roadway or structures are kept in
satisfactory condition at all times.
In the case of a Contract involving the placement
of material on or utilization of, a previously con-
structed subgrade, pavement structure or structure,
the Contractor shall maintain the previously con,

structed work during all construction operations.
All cost of maintaining the work during con-
struction and before the project is accepted will not
be paid for separately, but shall be included in the
work.
Contractors transporting material weighed by
Division personnel will not be given a scale ticket if
the load exceeds the legal limit. If a vehicle's gross
weight exceeds the legal limit as weighed by a
certified weigher and the material transported by the
vehicle is delivered to the project, the material and
the scale will not be accepted.
If a scale ticket from an overweight vehicle is
inadvertently accepted and the material incorp-
orated into the project, the Engineer will adjust the
price for the overweight load as follows:
(1) The pay item quantity represented by the
amount of material in excess of the legal weight
will not be paid for.
(2) A price reduction will be assessed for the over-
weight portion of the load based on the
following schedule.

105.15 Failure to Maintain Roadway or
Structure. If the Contractor, at any time, fails to
comply with the provisions of subsection 105.14, the
Engineer will immediately notify the Contractor of
such non-compliance. If the Contractor fails to
remedy unsatisfactory maintenance within 24 hours
after receipt of such notice, the Engineer may imme-
diately proceed to maintain the project, and the
entire cost of this maintenance will be deducted from
monies due or to become due the Contractor on the
Contract.

105.16 Acceptance.
(a) Partial Acceptance. If at anytime during
the prosecution of the project the Contractor
satisfactorily completes a unit or portion of
the project, such as a structure, an inter-
change, or a section of road or pavement that
can be used ad van tageously for traffic, the
Engineer may make final inspection of that
unit. If the Engineer finds that the unit has
