It is not specified in the contract whether this material is to be provided by the owner or by the construction party Can a fee be charged to Party A for the fabrication and installation of temporary pipes?
It should be the construction method that provides the relevant equipment and facilities; the contract should include provisions regarding pressure testing and commissioning, all of which fall within the responsibilities of the contractor! The cost issue has already been taken into account by the contractor; unless they’re stupid! Hehe
It can’t be said that something must be done just because it should be; there needs to be a clear requirement. If none exists, then there is room for negotiation.
It depends on the contract; only the parties involved know whether it specifies this clearly!
Hehe, don’t get excited; this is just a favorable provision in the contract. No contract is 100% clearly described, so specialized business personnel are needed.
The legal validity of a contract lies in its effectiveness and precision, rather than merely following the terms of the contract; it is important to have a clear definition of the contract.
It’s not clear; it’s glue, just glue. It depends on whether you have the means to get money
The quota includes the amortization costs for temporary pipes and valves; therefore, the temporary materials required for pressure testing and cleaning must be provided by the construction party itself.
In the pipeline pressure testing and flushing tests, the quantities required for materials such as temporary pipelines used for connecting the pipes, blind flanges, valves, bolts, etc., as well as the fabrication, installation, and removal of temporary short pipes like control valves, are already included. During pipeline system pressure testing and flushing, the work involves removing these short pipes after completion and restoring the original valve components; this can be considered auxiliary measures taken during construction and is not charged separately. It is not yet clear which party will provide these materials; in my case, I have included them under the costs of the contractor. After all, the amount isn’t large!
