to provide all labor, materials, equipment, construction, and
services necessary for the proper execution and completion
of the Work. The Contract Documents are complementary
and what is required by any one will be as binding as if
required by all. Contractor will perform the Work in
accordance with the requirements expressly set forth in or
reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents.
B. The organization of the Contract Documents is not intended
to control Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontrac-
tors or to establish the extent of the Work to be performed by
any trade.
C. Words used in the Contract Documents that have well known
technical or trade meanings are used therein in accordance
with such recognized meanings.
D. In the interest of brevity, the Contract Documents may omit
modifying words such as "all" and "any" and articles such as
"the" and "an," but the fact that a modifier or an article is
absent from one statement and appears in another is not
intended to affect the Interpretation of either statement.
1.3 OWNERSHIP AND USE OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
The Drawings, the Project Manual, and copies thereof are the
property of Owner. Contractor will not use these documents
on any other project. Contractor may retain one copy of the
Drawings and the Project Manual as a contract record set
and will return or destroy all remaining copies following final
completion of the Work.
2.2 INFORMATION AND SERVICES REQUIRED OF OWNER
A. Owner will be responsible for establishment of property
lines and benchmarks for grading.
B. Owner will furnish to Contractor any information or services
it is required to furnish under the Contract Documents with
reasonable promptness to avoid delay in the orderly
progress of the Work.
C. Owner will furnish to Contractors reasonable number of
copies of the Drawings, the Project Manual, and the
Addenda.
2.3 OWNER'S RIGHT TO INSPECT THE WORK
Owner and its representatives will have the right to inspect
any portion of the Work wherever located at any time.
2.4 OWNER'S RIGHT TO STOP THE WORK

manner, Owner may order Contractor in writing to stop the
Work, or any portion thereof, unfit the cause for that order
has been eliminated.
SECTION 3 - CONTRACTOR
3.1 REVIEW OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS AND FIELD
CONDITIONS BY CONTRACTOR
A. By executing the Agreement, Contractor represents that it
has visited the Project site, familiarized itself with the local
conditions under which the Work is to be performed, and
correlated its own observations with the requirements of the
Contract Documents.
B. Contractor will carefully review and compare the Contract
Documents and any other available information relating to
the Project prior to commencing and during performance of
each portion of the Work and will immediately report to
Architect any errors, inconsistencies, and omissions it
discovers.
C. Should Contractor or any of its Subcontractors become
aware of any question regarding the meaning or intent of
any part of the Contract Documents prior to commencing
that portion of the Work about which there is a question,
Contractor will request an interpretation or clarification from
Architect before proceeding. Contractor proceeds at its own
risk if it proceeds with the Work without first making such a
request and receiving an interpretation or clarification from
Architect. If neither Contractor nor its Subcontractors
become aware of the question until after work on the
relevant portion of the Work has commenced, then the
following precedence will govern for purposes of
determining whether resolution of the question constitutes a
Change in the Work:
1. The Agreement lakes precedence over all other
Contract Documents.
2. The Supplementary Conditions take precedence over
the General Conditions.

E.
F.
4. An Addendum or a Modification take precedence over
the document(s) modified by the Addendum or
Modification.
5. The Specifications take precedence over the Drawings.

dence over smaller scale drawings, figured dimensions
over scaled dimensions, and noted materials over
graphic Indications.
Contractor will give Architect notice of any additional
drawings, specifications, or instructions required to define the
Work in greater detail, or to permit the proper progress of the
Work, sufficiently in advance of the need for information so as
not to delay the Work.
It is not Contractors responsibility to ascertain that the
Contract Documents are in accordance with requirements of
applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, building codes, rules

Architect effects Modifications to the Contract Documents
required for compliance with such requirements. Contractor
will be fully responsible for any work knowingly performed
contrary to such requirements and will fully indemnify Owner
against loss and bear all costs and penalties arising
therefrom.
Contractor will take field measurements and verify field
conditions and will compare such field measurements and
conditions and other information known to Contractor with the
Contract Documents before ordering any materials or
commencing construction activities. Contractor will
immediately report errors, inconsistencies, and omissions that
it discovers to Architect. If Contractor orders materials or
commences construction activities before taking field
measurements and verifying field conditions, Contractor will
not be entitled to any compensation for additional costs to
Contractor resulting from field measurements or conditions
different from those anticipated by Contractor which would
have been avoided had Contractor taken field measurements
and verified field conditions prior to ordering the materials or
commencing construction activities.

procedures will be bome by Contractor, notwithstanding that
such construction means, methods, techniques, sequences
or procedures are referred to, indicated or implied by the
Contract Documents, unless Contractor has given timely
notice to Owner and Architect in writing that such means,
methods, techniques, sequences or procedures are not safe
or suitable, and Owner has then Instructed Contractor in
writing to proceed at Owner's risk.

the Contract Documents. Architect may require Contractor
to produce reasonable evidence that a material meets such
requirements, such as certified reports of past tests by
qualified testing laboratories, reports of studies by qualified
experts, or other evidence which, in the opinion of Architect,
would lead to a reasonable certainty that any material used,
or proposed to be used, in the work meets the requirements
of the Contract Documents. All such data will be furnished
at Contractors expense. This provision will not require
Contractor to pay for periodic testing of different batches of
the same material, unless such testing is specifically

or "Claim"), including but not limited to attorney fees,
consultant fees, expert fees, copy costs, and other expenses,
arising out of or resulting from performance of the Work,
attributable to bodily Injury, sickness, disease, or death, or to
injury to or destruction of real or personal property, including
loss of use resulting therefrom, except to the extent that such
liability arises out of the negligence of Owner, its
representatives, agents, and employees. This indemnity
includes, without limitation, indemnification of Owner from all
losses or injury to Owner's property, except to the extent that
such loss or injury arises out of the negligence of Owner, its
representatives, agents, and employees. This indemnity
applies, without limitation, to include Claims occurring both
during performance of the Work and/or subsequent to
completion of the Work. In the event that any Claim is
caused in part by a party indemnified hereunder, that party
will bear the cost of such Claim to the extent it was the cause
thereof. In the event that a claimant asserts a Claim for
recovery against any party indemnified hereunder, the party
indemnified hereunder may tender the defense of such Claim
to Contractor. If Contractor rejects such tender of defense
and it is later determined that the negligence of the party
indemnified hereunder did not cause all of the Claim,
Contractor will reimburse the party indemnified hereunder for
all costs and expenses incurred by that party in defending
against the Claim. Contractor will not be liable hereunder to
indemnify any party for damages resulting from the sole
negligence of that party.
B. In addition to the foregoing, Contractor will be liable to defend

make exhaustive or continuous onsite inspections. On the
basis of its observations while at the site, Architect will keep
Owner informed of the progress of the Work and will

concurrence of Owner, whenever such stoppage may be
necessary in its reasonable opinion to insure the proper
performance of the Work.
Architect will review Contractor's Submittals and will accept
or take other appropriate action regarding the Submittals.
Architect's review of the Submittals will be for the limited
purpose of checking for general conformance with the
Contract Documents and will not be conducted for the
purpose of determining the accuracy and completeness of
details such as dimensions and quantities, or for substan-
tiating instructions for installation or performance of
equipment or systems, all of which remain the responsibility
of Contractor. Architects review of Submittals will not
relieve Contractor of its obligations under the Contract
Documents. Architect's review of Submittals will not
constitute acceptance of safety precautions or construction
means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures.
Architect's acceptance of a specific item will not indicate
acceptance of an assembly of which the item is a compo-
nent.
G. Architect has authority to order Construction Change
Directives and Field Changes in accordance with Section 7.
H. Architect will conduct inspections to determine the dates of
Substantial Completion and final completion, will receive

any separate contractor for proper performance or results,
Contractor will inspect and promptly report to Architect any
apparent discrepancies or defects in such work that render

acceptance of the work of the separate contractor as fit and
proper to receive Contractors Work, except as to defects
not then reasonably discoverable.
C. Contractor will promptly remedy damage caused by
Contractor or any Subcontractor to the completed or
partially completed work of other contractors or to the

CONTRACTOR
A. If Owner or Architect gives Contractor an instruction that
modifies the requirements of the Contract Documents or
delays Substantial Completion, Contractor may be entitled
to an adjustment in the Contract Sum and/or the Contract
Time. If compliance with the instruction affects the cost to
Contractor to perform the Work, the Contract Sum will be
adjusted to reflect the reasonable increase or decrease in
cost subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7. 1,
Paragraphs B through G. If compliance with the instruction
delays Substantial Completion, the Contract Time will be
extended for a period of time commensurate with such
delay subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7. 1,

Contractor will be paid liquidated damages for the delay as
set forth in Section 7.3, Paragraph B.
BYU-Idaho Revision 02 June 2013
B. If Contractor receives an instruction from Owner or
Architect that Contractor considers to be a Change in the
Work, Contractor, before complying with the instruction, will
notify Architect in writing that Contractor considers such
instruction to constitute a Change in the Work. If Architect
agrees that compliance with the instruction will constitute a
Change in the Work, Contractor will furnish a proposal for a
Modification in accordance with Section 7.1, Paragraphs C.
and D. within ten (10) days.
C. If Contractor claims that it is entitled to an adjustment in the
Contract Sum (including without limitation costs related to a
time extension) as a result of an instruction by Owner or
Architect, Contractor will furnish a proposal for a Change
Order containing a price breakdown itemized as required by
Owner. The breakdown will be in sufficient detail to allow
Page 6 of 13
BYU-1 Kirkham Bldg. TR & Cabling JHS #1311
Owner to determine any increase or decrease in Direct Costs
as a result of compliance with the instruction. Any amount
claimed for subcontracts will be supported by a similar price
breakdown and will itemize the Subcontractor's profit and
overhead charges. Profit and overhead will be subject to the
following limitations:
1. The Subcontractor's profit and overhead will not exceed
twelve (12) percent of its Direct Costs.

be the actual net savings to Contractor from the Change
in the Work as confirmed by Architect. On credit
changes, profit and overhead on the originally estimated
work will not be credited back to Owner. If both
additions and credits are involved in a single Change in
the Work, overhead and profit will be figured on the
basis of net increase, if any, related to that Change in
the Work.
D. If Contractor claims that it is entitled to an adjustment in the
Contract Time as a result of an instruction from Owner or
Architect, Contractor will include in its proposal justification to
support Contractor's claim that compliance with the
instruction will delay Substantial Completion.
E. Upon receipt of Contractor's proposal for Modification,
Architect and Owner will determine whether to proceed with
the Change in the Work. If Architect and Owner determine to
proceed with the Change in the Work, they will issue a
Change Order, a Construction Change Directive or a Field
Change as appropriate.

Contractor will comply with the instruction. Contractor may
submit its claim for adjustment to the Contract Sum, the
Contract Time, or both as a dispute pursuant to Section 13
within thirty (30) days after compliance with the instruction.
Contractor agrees that if it fails to submit its claim for
resolution pursuant to Section 13 within thirty (30) days after
compliance with the instruction, then Contractor will not be
entitled to any adjustment in the Contract Sum or the
Contract Time as a result of the instruction and waives any
claim therefor.

Sum and/or the Contract Time. If the circumstance or event
affects the cost to Contractor to perform the Work and is
caused by a willful or negligent act or omission of Owner or
Architect, the Contract Sum will be adjusted to reflect the
reasonable increase or decrease in Contractor's cost to
perform the Work resulting from the event or circumstance,
subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7.2, Paragraphs
B through F. If the event or circumstance delays Substantial
Completion and is described in Section 7.3, Paragraph A, the
Sept. 2013
Contract Time will be extended for a period of time
commensurate with such delay subject to the conditions set
forth in such section. If the circumstance or event delays
Substantial Completion and is caused by a willful or
negligent act or omission of Owner or Architect, then
Contractor will be compensated for costs incident to the
delay in accordance with Section 7.3, Paragraph B.
Contractor will not be entitled to any adjustment to the
Contract Sum or other damages from Owner as a result of
any event or circumstance unless the event or
circumstance results from a willful or negligent act or
omission of Owner or Architect.

tions
nspecttions to check the quantity or quality of the Work;

because of subsequently discovered evidence or
subsequent observations, may nullify the whole or a part of
a payment request previously certified, to such extent as
may be necessary in Architect's opinion to protect Owner
from loss because of:
1. Defective work not remedied;
2. Third -party claims filed or reasonable evidence
indicating probable filing of such claims;

Subcontractors for labor, materials, equipment,
construction or services;

12.2 CORRECTION OF WORK
A. Contractor will promptly correct any portion of the Work that is
rejected by Architect or which fails to conform to the
requirements of the Contract Documents, whether observed
before or after Substantial Completion and whether or not

cost of correcting such rejected Work, including additional
testing and inspection costs, compensation for Architect's
services, and any other expenses made necessary thereby.
B. Contractor will remedy any defects due to faulty materials,
equipment, or workmanship which appear within a period of
one (1) year from the date of Substantial Completion or within
such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or by
the terms of any applicable special warranty required by the
Contract Documents. Contractor will pay all costs of
correcting faulty work, including additional Architect's fees,
attorneys' fees, expert fees, consultant fees, copy costs, and
other expenses when incurred.
C. Nothing in the Contract Documents will be construed to
establish a period of limitation within which Owner may
enforce the obligation of Contractor to comply wrath the
Contract Documents. The one-year period specified above
has no relationship to the time within which compliance with
the Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor to
the time within which proceedings may be commenced to
establish Contractors liability with respect to Contractors
obligations.
12.3 ACCEPTANCE OF NONCONFORMING WORK
A. If Owner prefers to accept any portion of the Work not in
conformance with the Contract Documents, Owner may do so
instead of requiring removal and correction of the
nonconforming Work. In that event, the Contract Sum will be
reduced by an amount agreed upon by the parties that
reflects the difference in value to Owner between the Work as
specified and the nonconforming Work. Such adjustment
may consider increased maintenance costs, early replace-
ment costs, increased inefficiency of use, and the like and will
be effective whether or not final payment has been made.
Such adjustment will be reflected in a Change Order pursuant
to Section 7.5.
B. Temporary or trial usage by Owner or Architect of mechanical
devices, machinery, apparatus, equipment, or other work or
materials supplied under the Contract Documents prior to
written acceptance by Architect, will not constitute Owner's
acceptance.

Should Contractor fail to provide Owner with the bonds and
certificates of insurance required by Section i t within the
time specified therein, make a general assignment for the
benefit of its creditors, fail to apply enough properly skilled
workmen or specified materials to properly prosecute the
Work in accordance with Contractors schedule, or other-
wise materially breach any provision of the Contract
Documents, then Owner may, without any prejudice to any
other right or remedy, give Contractor Written Notice
thereof. If Contractor fails to cure its default within ten If 0)
days, Owner may terminate the Agreement by giving
Written Notice to Contractor. In such case, Owner may, in
Owners sole discretion, take legal assignment of
subcontracts and other contractual rights of Contractor
and/or take possession of the premises and all materials,
tools, equipment, and appliances thereon, and finish the
Work by whatever method Owner deems expedient.
Contractor will not be entitled to receive any further
payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of
the Contract Sum exceeds the expense of finishing the
Work, including compensation for additional administrative,
architectural, consultant, and legal services (including
without limitation attorneys fees, expert fees, copy costs,
and other expenses), such excess will be paid to
Contractor. If such expense exceeds the unpaid balance,
Contractor will pay the difference to Owner. Contractor will
provide to Owner all warranty, as built, inspection, and
other close out documents as well as materials that
Contractor has in its possession or control at the time of
termination. Without limitation, Contractor's indemnities

thereunder, except as may be specifically agreed in writing.
Notwithstanding any other provision contained in the Contract
Documents, Owner may, without cause and in its absolute
discretion, terminate the Agreement at any time. In the event
of such termination, Contractor will be entitled to recover from
Owner the percentage of the Contract Sum equal to the
percentage of the Work which Architect determines has been
completed on the Project site as of the date of termination
together with any out of pocket loss Contractor has sustained
with respect to materials and equipment as a result of the
termination prior to completion of the Work, less any offsets.
Contractor will not be entitled to unearned profits or any other
compensation as a result of the termination and hereby
waives any claim therefor. Contractor will provide to Owner
all warranty, as built, inspection, and other close out
documents as well as materials that Contractor has in its
possession or control at the time of termination. Owner may,
in Owner's sole discretion, take legal assignment of
subcontracts and other contractual rights of Contractor.
Without limitation, Contractor's indemnities and obligations
under section 3.14 as well as all warranties in the

BYU-I Kirkham Bldg. TR & Cabling JHS #1311 Sept. 2013
THE FOLLOWING REPLACES SECTION 7.1 OF THE GENERAL CONDITIONS:
7.1 CHANGES IN THE WORK RESULTING FROM AN INSTRUCTION BY OWNER OR
ARCHITECT TO CONTRACTOR
A. The contract language contained in the Supplementary General Conditions take precedence
over all other change order pricing contract provisions in the contract documents. It is understood
that these contract provisions will govern the pricing and administration of all change order
proposals to be submitted by the General Contractor and/or the Trade Contractors and/or the
Subcontractors and/or all other lower tier sub -subcontractors (all referred to as "Contractor"). In
the event of a conflict between the other contract documents used for the project, these change
order pricing contract provisions shall govern.
B. Contractor agrees that it will incorporate the provisions into all agreements with lower tier
Contractors. It is understood that these change order pricing provisions apply to all types of
contracts and/or subcontracts specifically including lump sum (or fixed price contracts), unit price
contracts, and/or cost plus contracts. It is further understood that these change order provisions
will apply to all methods of change order pricing specifically including lump sum change order
proposals, unit price change order proposals, and cost plus change order proposals.
C. Whenever change order proposals to adjust the contract price become necessary, the Owner will
have the right to select the method of pricing to be used by the contractor in accordance with the
pricing provisions. The options will be (1) lump sum change order proposal, (2) unit price change
order proposal, or (3) cost plus change order proposal as defined in the following provisions.
1. Lump Sum Change Order Proposals: The Owner will require itemized change
orders on all change order proposals from the Contractor, subcontractors, and
sub -subcontractors regardless of tier. Details to be submitted will include
detailed line item estimates showing detailed materials quantity take -offs,
material prices by item and related labor hour pricing information and extensions
(by line item or by drawing as applicable.)
2. Labor: Estimated labor hours shall include hours only for those workmen and
working foremen directly involved in performing the change order work.
Supervision above the level of working foremen (such as general foremen,
superintendent, project manager, etc.) is considered to be included in the Markup
Percentages as outlined in paragraphs 1.6 and 1.7.
3. Labor Burden: Labor burden allowable in change orders shall be defined as
employer's net actual cost of payroll taxes (FICA, Medicare, SUTA, FUTA), net
actual cost for employer's cost of union benefits (or other usual and customary
fringe benefits if the employees are not union employees), and net actual cost to
employer for worker's compensation insurance taking into consideration
adjustments for experience modifiers, premium discounts, dividends, rebates,
expense constants, assigned risk pool costs, net cost reductions due to policies
with deductibles for self-insured losses, assigned risk rebates, etc. Contractor
shall reduce their standard payroll tax percentages to properly reflect the
effective cost reduction due to the estimated impact of the annual maximum
wages subject to payroll taxes.
4. Material: Estimated material change order costs shall reflect the Contractor's
reasonably anticipated net actual cost for the purchase of the material needed for
the change order work. Estimated material costs shall reflect cost reductions
available to the Contractor due to "non -Cash" discounts, trade discounts, free
material credits, and/or volume rebates. Price quotations from material suppliers
must be itemized with unit prices for each specific item to be purchased. "Lot
pricing" quotations will not be considered sufficient substantiating detail.
BYU-Idaho Rev 01 June 2013 Page 2 of 7
BYU-I Kirkham Bldg. TR & Cabling JHS #1311 Sept. 2013
5. Equipment: Allowable change order estimated costs may include appropriate
amounts for rental of major equipment specifically needed to perform the change
order work (defined as tools and equipment with an individual purchase cost of
more than 750). For contractor owned equipment, the "bare" equipment rental
rates allowed to be used for pricing change order proposals shall be 75% of the
monthly rate listed in the most current publication of The AED Green Book
divided by 176 to arrive at a maximum hourly rate to be applied to the hours the
equipment is used performing the change order work. Further, for contractor
owned equipment the aggregate equipment rent charges for any single piece of
equipment used in all change order work shall be limited to 50% of the fair
market value of the piece of equipment when the first change order is priced
involving usage of the piece of equipment. Fuel necessary to operate the
equipment will be considered as a separate direct cost associated with the
change order work.
6. Maximum Markup Percentage Allowable on Self -Performed Work: With
respect to pricing change orders, the maximum Markup Percentage Fee to be
paid to any Contractor (regardless of tier) on self -performed work shall be a
single markup percentage not -to -exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the net direct
cost of (1) direct labor and allowable labor burden costs applicable to the
change order or extra work; (2) the net cost of material and installed equipment
incorporated into the change or extra work, and (3) net rental cost of major
equipment and related fuel costs necessary to complete the change in the
Work.
The markup computed using the above formula shall be considered to be
allocated 2/3 to cover applicable overhead costs directly attributable to the field
overhead costs related to processing, supervising and performing, the change
order work, and the remaining 1/3 to cover home office overhead costs and
profit.
Maximum Markup Percentages Allowable on Work Performed by Lower Tier
Contractors: With respect to pricing the portion of change order proposals
involving work performed by lower tier contractors, the maximum Markup
Percentage Fee allowable to the Contractor supervising the lower tier
contractor's work shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the net of all approved
change order work performed by all subcontractors combined for any particular
change order proposal.
The markup computed using the above formula shall be considered to be
allocated 2/3 to cover applicable overhead costs directly attributable to the Feld
overhead costs related to processing, supervising and performing the change
order work, and the remaining 1/3 to cover home office overhead costs and
profit.
8. No Markup on Bonds and Liability Insurance Costs: Change Order cost
adjustments due increases or decreases in bond or insurance costs (if
applicable) shall not be subject to any Markup Percentage Fee.
9. Direct and Indirect Costs Covered by Markup Percentages: As a further
clarification, the agreed upon Markup Percentage Fee is intended to cover the
Contractor's profit and all indirect costs associated with the change order work.
Items intended to be covered by the Markup Percentage Fee include, but are not
limited to: home office expenses, branch office and field office overhead expense
of any kind; project management; superintendents, general foremen; estimating,
engineering; coordinating; expediting; purchasing; detailing; legal, accounting,
data processing or other administrative expenses; shop drawings; permits; auto
insurance and umbrella insurance; pick-up truck costs; and warranty expense
BYU-Idaho Rev 01 June 2013 Page 3 of 7
BYU-I Kirkham Bldg. TR & Cabling JHS #1311 Sept. 2013
costs. The cost for the use of small tools is also to be considered covered by the
Markup Percentage Fee. Small tools shall be defined as tools and equipment
(power or non -power) with an individual purchase cost of less than $750.
10. Deduct Change Orders and Net Deduct Changes: The application of the
markup percentages referenced in the preceding paragraphs 1.6 and 1.7 will
apply to both additive and deductive change orders. In the case of a deductive
change order, the credit will be computed by applying the sliding scale
percentages as outlined in paragraphs 1.6 and 1.7 so that a deductive change
order would be computed in the same manner as an additive change order. In
those instances where a change involves both additive and deductive work, the
additions and deductions will be netted and the markup percentage adjustments
will be applied to the net amount.
11. Contingency: In no event will any lump sum or percentage amounts for
"contingency" be allowed to be added as a separate line item in change order
estimates. Unknowns attributable to labor hours will be accounted for when
estimating labor hours anticipated to perform the work. Unknowns attributable to
material scrap and waste will be estimated as part of material costs.
12. Change Order Proposal Time and Change Directives: The Contractor's
proposals for changes in the contract amount or time shall be submitted within
seven (7) calendar days of the Owner's request, unless the Owner extends such
period of time due to the circumstances involved. If such proposals are not
received in a timely manner, if the proposals are not acceptable to Owner, or if
the changed work should be started immediately to avoid damage to the project
or costly delay, the Owner may direct the Contractor to proceed with the changes
without waiting for the Contractor's proposal or for the formal change order to be
issued. In the case of an unacceptable Contractor proposal, the Owner may
direct the Contractor to proceed with the changed work on a cost-plus basis with
an agreed upon "not -to -exceed" price for the work to be performed. Such
directions to the Contractor by the Owner shall be confirmed in writing by a
"Notice to Proceed on Changes" letter within seven (7) calendar days. The cost
or credit, and or time extensions will be determined by negotiations as soon as
practical thereafter and incorporated in a Change Order to the Contract.
THE FOLLOWING ADDS SECTION 7.9 TO THE GENERAL CONDITIONS:
7.9 Owner's Right to Audit
A. Liability Insurance and Bonds: In the event the Contractor has been required to
furnish comprehensive general liability insurance and/or performance and/or payment
bonds as part of the base contract price, a final contract change order will be processed
to account for the Contractor's net increase or decrease in comprehensive general
liability insurance costs and/or bond premium costs associated with change orders to
Contractor's base contract price.
B. Accurate Change Order Pricing Information: Contractor (subcontractor or sub -sub
contractor) agrees that it is responsible for submitting accurate cost and pricing data to
support its Lump Sum Change and/or Cost Plus Change Order Proposals or other
contract price adjustments under the contract. Contractor further agrees to submit
change order proposals with cost and pricing data which is accurate, complete, current,
and in accordance with the terms of the contract with respect to pricing of change orders.
BYU-Idaho Rev 01 June 2013 Page 4 of 7
BYU-1 Kirkham Bldg. TR & Cabling JHS #1311 Sept. 2013
C. Right to Verify Change Order Pricing Information: Contractor, subcontractor and sub -
sub -contractor agrees that any designated Owner's representative will have the right to
examine (copy or scan) the records of the Contractor, subcontractor or sub -sub
contractor's records (during the contract period and up to three years after final payment
is made on the contract) to verify the accuracy and appropriateness of the pricing data
used to price all change order proposals and/or claims. Contractor agrees that if the
Owner determines the cost and pricing data submitted (whether approved or not) was
inaccurate, incomplete, not current, or not in compliance with the terms of the contract
regarding pricing of change orders, an appropriate contract price adjustment will be
made. Such post -approval contract price adjustments will apply to all levels of
contractors and/or subcontractors and to all types of change order proposals specifically
including lump sum change orders, unit price change orders, and cost-plus change
orders.
D. Requirements for Detailed Change Order Pricing Information: Contractor,
subcontractor agrees to provide and require all Subcontractors and sub -subcontractors to
provide a breakdown of allowable labor and labor burden cost information as outlined in
this Exhibit "A". This information will be used to evaluate the potential cost of labor and
labor burden related to change order work. It is intended that this information represent
an accurate estimate of the Contractor's actual labor and labor burden cost components.
This information is not intended to establish fixed billing or change order pricing labor
rates. However, at the time change orders are priced, the submitted cost data for labor
rates may be used to price change order work. The accuracy of any such agreed upon
labor cost components used to price change orders will be subject to later audit.
Approved change order amounts may be adjusted later to correct the impact of
inaccurate labor cost components if the agreed upon labor cost components are
determined to be inaccurate.
THE FOLLOWING REPLACES SECTION 9.5 OF THE GENERAL CONDITIONS:
9.5 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
A. Owner will pay Contractor progress payments within the parameters of Section 9.2 within fifteen (15)
days after:
1. Contractor has submitted a progress payment request;

statutory Conditional Waiver and Release documents executed by all subcontractors and suppliers
having claim against the retained funds, Owner will pay any unpaid retention less any amounts
withheld pursuant to Section 9.4 within forty-five (45) days from the later of (a) the date Owner
received Contractor's payment request for retained funds and fully executed Contractor's Substantial
Completion Affidavit and Consent of Surety, (b) the date a certificate of occupancy is issued; (c) the
date that a building inspector having authority to issue its own certificate of occupancy does not
issue that certificate but permits occupancy.
C. Owner will make payments to Contractor by either placing the payments in the United States mail
addressed to Contractor or by electronic transfer at Owner's discretion.
D. Upon receipt of any payment from Owner, Contractor will pay to each Subcontractor the amount

made to Contractor. These retention funds will be held in an interest bearing account.
THE FOLLOWING REPLACES SECTION 9.6 OF THE GENERAL CONDITIONS:

C. If the aggregate of previous payments made by Owner exceeds the amount due Contractor,
Contractor will reimburse the difference to Owner.

Section 2: BYU-Idaho Students Doing Work on the BYU-
Idaho Cable Plant
2.1 Student Team Members
BYU-Idaho employs students as technicians doing work on the various cabling and network systems on
campus. BYU-Idaho considers very valuable the contributions that students make. Students are trained
in the methods and approaches that we use on campus. Students doing work on campus will read and
understand this document before doing work. Work done in deviation from what is outlined in this
document will be done again. Students shall approach their different tasks with consideration to safety.
Student will use best safety practices when working on campus. This includes but is not limited to
proper use of tools and ladders and the use of Personal Protective Equipment such as safety glasses and
hardhats when necessary. There is a lead student who is a resource for questions from other student
team members concerning what are best practices for work on the BYU-Idaho campus. In addition to
the lead student, questions can be directed to members of the IT -Infrastructure team. Questions about
how to best accomplish tasks are not only necessary, but encouraged. Students who are not able and or
not willing to work in accordance to this standard and or not able to follow instruction from members of
the IT Network Infrastructure team will be dismissed.
2.2 Student Tasks
• Demolition of cabling and other infrastructure that is no longer needed or used.
• Pulling of copper horizontal permanent link station cables.
• Termination and testing of copper horizontal permanent link station cables.
• Pulling of fiber cables.
• Termination and testing of fiber permanent link cables.
• labeling of cables on TR end and station end.
2
• Installation of appropriate pathway components including J -hooks, cable tray, raceways, and
conduits.
• Connection of patch cables to create links between equipment and users.
• Documentation of cables, connections, and infrastructure.
Section 3: Telecommunication Rooms and Building
Entrance Facilities
In this document, and in related discussions, BYU-Idaho uses the term Telecommunication Room or TR
in accord with TIA/EIA and industry standard. We also use the term Entrance Facility to designate a TR
that is allocated for the room where network cabling and other service enter the building from the
outside. Entrance Facilities need to follow the same minimum guidelines as basic TR's with possible
additional guidelines. Special considerations for Entrance Facilities will be outlined in more detail in
Section 4 of this document. Other previously used terms for these types of rooms but not used on this
campus include: BDF, IDF, and closet. Telecommunication Rooms are rooms that provide a secure
location for network and telecommunication cabling and supporting network equipment.
Telecommunication Rooms provide a distribution and connection point between backbone cabling and
distribution cabling. Whenever possible at least 1 TR should be located on each building floor. In new
constructions, careful consideration to network standards and network protocol limitations including
cable length should be made in selection of a location for a TR.
3.1 Placement of TR's and Entrance Facilities
TR placement in new construction should be a decision that is made in close coordination with
representatives from contracted engineers tasked with building design, members of IT Infrastructure,
and members of the Physical Facilities design team. Any deviation from what is outlined in this
document should be agreed upon by all parties involved.
Considerations for placement of Telecommunication Rooms:
• Size of allocated space that will be served by the TR.
• Centrality on floor that TR will be serving.
• Allowance for copper horizontal station cable permanent link runs to be less than 295 feet.
• Accessibility to receive pathway from other parts of building including cable trays and conduits.
• Ability to follow the TR stack approach when another floor serving TR is above or below.
• Accessibility to TR from a common space such as a hall way.
3.2 TR's and Entrance Facilities as Secure and Dedicated Rooms
The secure nature of a Telecommunication Room makes it necessary that it not be a shared space. Only
authorized individuals doing specific tasks should be allowed into the rooms that are considered TR's.
This approach makes it necessary that functionality of the room be limited to activities associated with
moves, adds, and changes to network infrastructure and be performed by personnel in the Network
Infrastructure group. Entrance from other personnel and activities outside of this shall be prohibited.
TR's must be secured with a campus 4165 key. This key should only be in possession of individuals that
have regular need of entering TR's including Network Engineers in the Network Infrastructure group.
Any deviation from this outline of appropriate use of TR spaces should be agreed upon by the members
of the Network Infrastructure group.
TR's can contain but are not limited to containing the following:
• Patch cables
• Permanent link cables
• Cable management components
• Grounding equipment
• Hook-up wire for cross connection.
• Network switching gear
• Uninterruptable Power Supplies
• Copper Station Cables
• Single mode and multimode fiber cables
• Power Transfer switching gear
• Cabling and ground/lightning protection equipment for outside Emergency Phones
TR's shall not be used for:
• Storage for miscellaneous items from around the building
• Custodial rooms for storage of mops, cleaning supplies, etc.
• Office space
• Electrical/ HVAC / Security Systems
• Tool and material storage
• Student study or quiet space at any time of day
• Space for miscellaneous IT equipment connectivity without coordination with IT Infrastructure
• A pass through point for wiring for other systems not related to network infrastructure
• An equipment location for systems not related to network infrastructure without coordination
with IT Infrastructure
3.3 Equipment Consistency in TR's and Entrance Facilities
TR's on campus consist of a uniform combination of equipment, cable management, cable, connectors,
and patch panels. This consistent approach allows us to keep a manageable stock of supplies for scaling
our cable plant and network infrastructure. We have adopted specific manufacturers of parts and
equipment that we accept as standard equipment in TR's on campus. Individuals in IT Infrastructure
have received training in the installation and maintenance of many of these components. Support and
4
warranties are based on the professional installation of these specific components by BYU-Idaho
personnel and approved outside contractors.

Section 4: Backbone Cabling
Backbone cables typically originate out of the Joseph F. Smith Building and extend through our system of
utility vaults on campus. Entrance Facilities are the point at which these backbone services enter a
building. These rooms typically must be larger than a regular TR space because of the higher number of
racks, backbone cabling, and equipment that goes into these rooms. Building Entrance Facilities are the
point where backbone cables entering the building are usually terminated.
4.1 Backbone Cable Count Requirements
• Each building on the BYU-Idaho campus shall receive at least 24 single mode fibers. This count
requirement could be increased based on the services that are needed in the building. All fibers
and fiber terminating components shall be of the SYSTIMAX product line.
• Each building on the BYU-Idaho campus shall receive at least 25 pairs of copper backbone
cabling. Outside copper backbone cabling shall be 24 gauge.
• There are multiple large fiber and copper dark cable counts that are available in utility vaults for
splicing and taking cable counts into new constructions. Close coordination with BYU-Idaho IT
Infrastructure, Facilities personnel and contracted engineers and installers should occurwhen
splicing into existing infrastructure in utility vaults.
• All backbone copper cable counts shall be protected with gas style cable protection fuses on
both ends of the cable.
• All backbone copper cable counts shall be terminated on a 110 style panel in the Entrance
Facility with a separate cable extending the connectivity to a SYSTIMAX patch panel ready for

suspended from the cables that they are splicing.
• Splice cases shall be labeled according to the cables that they are splicing.
• Angle supports shall be installed with necessary trays and shelves to keep cable loops off the
ground in a neat and organized manner.
10
• Utility vaults on campus are a shared resource with our high voltage plant. Communications
cables shall not weave, cross, or mix in any way with the cables that are for high voltage. As
much distance as possible should be maintained between the two cable types.
• Precautionary safety measures are the responsibility of the individual contractors that will be
doing work in the vaults. Utility vaults are considered a confined space on the campus of BYU-
Idaho. Safety measures should be taken by the contractor to assure a safe working
environment. This includes but should not be limited to testing for adequate oxygen levels in
vaults before entry.
• 20' of service loop shall be installed in a neat manner in each vault that a new cable install
passes through.

ends.
• In all cases, copper cables installed between the Entrance Facility and the TR must be
appropriately rated for plenum spaces.
Section 6: Horizontal Station Cabling
Horizontal cable is the connecting cable that typically extends from the TR to the user or station that it is
providing network connectivity for. Typically this cable is terminated on a patch panel on the TR end
and a jack or information outlet on the user end. Horizontal cabling on the BYU-Idaho campus is part of
a SCS or Structure Cabling System. The manufacturer of choice for our SCS is SYSTIMAX. Lack of cable
connectivity or network jacks in a particular location is solved by installing additional cables to meet the
specific user need. Solutions for lack of connectable ports do not include altering existing terminated
cable, connecting hubs, switches, or wireless devices.
6.1 Requirements for Uniform Horizontal Station Cabling
• Only one Structure Cabling Solution shall be allowed to be installed on campus. The solution
shall be SYSTIMAX SCS.
• Category 6 cabling is the standard for our campus. Category 3, 5, and 5e are not acceptable

6.3 Guidelines for Horizontal Cable Dressing in the TR or Entrance
Facility
• Cables shall be neatly pencil dressed upon entering the TR or Entrance Facility. This pencil style
dressing shall be maintained until termination at the patch panel.
• Tangled or taught cables within the TR will not be accepted.
• Cables shall be bundled in groups of 48 and Velcro wrapped every 2'. Cables adds shall build off
of partially formed bundles until the bundle reaches the count of 48 cables at which point a new
bundle shall be formed.
• These bundles shall consist of a service loop of at least 10' of horizontal cable.
6.4 Example of Well Pencil Dressed Horizontal Cable
Section 7:
Horizontal Pathways
Horizontal pathways dictates how and where cables are routed. This includes the equipment that is put
in place in ceilings and on walls to keep cables managed and contained. Horizontal pathways should
also be engineered to protect cables from damage caused by work done in ceilings by other trades and
harmful effects of EMI on data signals on a copper cable.
15
7.1 Guidelines for Surface Raceways and In -Wall Installations
• In new constructions conduits shall be extended from the jack location through walls to ceiling
spaces and continue to the main cable pathway for the building; usually a cable basket tray.
• Surface raceways should never be the first choice of pathway for extending cable down a wall.
In adding cable to a finished building when possible wall cavities shall be fished to extend cable
to a location. A cut in box or old house box shall be used to attach a faceplate to a dry wall
where cable has been fished through the wall.
• When the wall is unable to be fished the accepted pathway product to use is Wiremold brand
2300 series non-metallic raceway. This raceway shall be electric ivory in color. Components of
this raceway system that must be used include but are not limited to the following:
o Wiremold 2300 Series S' length pieces
0 2300 Series Entrance End Fitting for butting raceways up to ceiling
0 2300 Series Join Covers to cover all seams in raceway installations
0 2300 Series Deep Device Box for surface mount box installations
0 2300 Series Flat Elbow
0 2300 Series Inside Elbow
o 2300 Series Outside Elbow
• Wiremold 2300 Series raceway shall be installed using wall anchors and not the sticky adhesive
backing.
• The maximum number of cables to be fit in Wiremold 2300 Series raceway is 8.
• All locations in raceway or not in raceway shall extend to the same off the floor distance as the
rest of the power outlets and data outlets in the room unless otherwise specified.
• All raceway installations shall be straight and neat with no exposed cable to be seen.
7.2 Guidelines for Using Basket Style Cable Trays
• Basket Trays are the preferred method of pathway for extending large amounts of cable for long
distances. The preferred model of tray in new constructions shall be CPI FastTrak with all of its
interconnecting components.
• In new constructions basket trays should follow main hallways or corridors that are routes for
large amounts of cable.
• Basket trays shall be installed with a minimum of 12" of clearance of lighting fixtures in ceilings.
• Basket trays and all cable supports shall never make contact with the ceiling grid or use the
ceiling grid support wires for extra support.
• In new construction conduits shall be extended from the location on the wall to a basket tray to
carry the cable the rest of the distance back to the TR.
• Wire ties shall not be used to fasten cables to basket trays.
• Cables shall not route tightly around basket tray intersections and corners, but rather loop
gradually with slack around the corners.
16
• Trays in the ceiling shall be securely fastened to structurally sound members in the ceiling to
avoid sagging and swaying of tray.
• Rough cut and Sharp edges on basket tray shall be filed off to avoid future injury to workers
installing cables.
• Basket trays shall be sized appropriately for the amount of cable they will be supporting. Over
or undersized basket trays will not be acceptable.
• Basket trays installed for support of network cables shall only be used for that purpose. Basket
trays shall not be used as support for other types of ceiling infrastructure.
7.3 Guidelines for Horizontal Cable Runs in Conduits
• In new construction conduits shall be used to extend cable runs from their location on the wall
to a cable tray or to the TR.
• Conduits feeding cable from cable tray shall extend 2" to 3" inches into the tray.
• All conduits installed for the purpose of providing pathway for horizontal cable shall be at least
1" inside diameter regardless of the number of cables called for at the immediate install. Larger
than 1" trade size conduit shall be installed based on cable counts in reference to the table
below.

• No more than 6 cables shall be installed in a 1" inside diameter conduit.
• All conduit ends shall be fitted with a plastic bushing.
• Conduit runs shall be installed with appropriate pull boxes and bends that do not exceed 90
degrees for ease and ability of pulling cable.
• Conduits that do not have cable immediately installed shall be equipped with a pull line for
future cable installation.
• Open conduits shall be stopped with fire -stopping putty or caulk in accordance to UL 1479 and
ASTM E814.
7.4 Guidelines for J -Hooks and Cable Saddles as Cable Support
• J -Hooks are an acceptable pathway for cable only when a basket tray is not able to be installed,
or doesn't make sense to install because of space and or accessibility limitations.
17
• Erico Caddy CAT32 and CAT425 are the preferred model of cable support to be used on the BYU-
Idaho campus.
• Minimum 1 -Hook size shall be 2 inches.
• Cable retaining clips shall be installed with all J -Hooks to prevent cables from falling out of the
hooks
• Hooks and cable saddles shall be properly and securely fastened using angle hanging brackets
and or beam clamps.
• J -Hooks and or saddles shall be installed every 4' to 5'. With a staggered distance between 4'
and S' to avoid a harmonic anomaly in the data signal.
• 3 Velcro tie wraps shall be installed between each J -Hook or saddle maintaining a neat and
contained bundle of cable.
• Grid wire, sprinkler pipe, electrical conduit, HVAC duct work, ceiling grid, and ceiling tile are
never acceptable fasteners or supports for cabling.
Section 8: Testing and Test Reports
8.1 Guidelines for Testing
• All Category 6 and 6A horizontal station cables and singlemode and multimode fiber optic cables
shall be tested using Fluke DTX 1800 Cable Analyzer. Contractors who wish to use other test
equipment may do so only with the approval of representatives of IT Infrastructure.
• The Fluke DTX 1800 used for testing shall be within 1 year of its most recent calibration to be
used for certifying cable on campus.
• The Fluke DTX 1800 shall be updated with the latest firmware when testing on our campus.
• The Fluke DTX 1800 shall be set to the SYSTIMAX GigaSpeed cable Auto testing mode.
• Horizontal copper cabling shall be tested only afterthe finishing faceplate has been put in place.
If for any reason the faceplate is removed and replaced, all horizontal cables at the location shall
be tested and certified again.
• No cable installation is considered finished until a passing test result is achieved.
• Copper riser and backbone pairs shall be tested using a DC continuity test.
• Fiber optic cabling shall be tested in both directions using the correctly referenced and
calibrated Fluke DTX 1800 with fiber modules corresponding to the mode of fiber under test.
• Multimode fiber shall be tested at both 850 nm and 1300 nm wavelengths.
• Singlemode fiber shall be tested at both 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths.
• Each strand's splice loss shall be no greater than 0.2 db. This shall not be an average measure of
all strands tested, but an individual strand requirement.
• Loss per mated connector shall be 0.6 db or less for acceptance. This shall not be an average
measure of all strands tested, but an individual strand requirement.
• No sampling testing will be allowed. All cables installed shall be tested and submitted.
18
8.2 Guidelines for Submission of Test Reports
• The individual PASS test files shall be saved as the label of the cable that was tested.
• An electronic copy of the test results shall be submitted to a representative of IT Infrastructure
before the install shall be considered complete.
• Test results shall be submitted as .FLW file format for viewing with use of the Fluke Linkware
software.
• On new constructions, as part of the test result submission a certificate noting a Certified
SYSTIMAX install has been performed shall also be submitted by the contractor who did the
installation.
Section 9:
Labeling of Copper and Fiber Optic Cabling
Labeling is a crucial component of a finish cable install. Labeling shall be consistent in all building across
campus. An install will not be accepted until cables are properly labeled.
9.1 Labeling Copper Horizontal Station Cables, Backbone Cables, and
Riser Cables
• All labels shall be printed. No hand written labels will be accepted.
• Station cables shall have a wrap style label on the cable jacket behind the faceplate within 1" of
the termination to the jack, and another identical label that is on the jacket 1" from the
termination on the patch panel. This label shall be printed off from a professional model labeler
such as P -Touch, Brady, or Dyno Labeler.
• Installers shall consistently follow the BYU-Idaho cable labeling schemes for copper cables. New
methods and or schemes of cable labeling will not be allowed.
• Labels on SYSTIMAX patch panels shall be inserted into the plastic label holder accessory
available through SYSTIMAX. Gluing, taping, or hanging labels on patch panels will not be
accepted.
• Labels on SYSTIMAX faceplates shall be printed. They shall also neatly and squarely be installed
behind the clear plastic window on the top or far left of the faceplate. The second clear plastic
window shall be inserted in the bottom or right side position available. This label shall have the
TR room number that the cable terminates in. The opaque window strip provided in the
SYSTIMAX faceplate kit shall not be used.
• Backbone cable pairs shall be labeled at the patch panel where they terminate. They shall be
labeled with the four digit call out number that corresponds with its identifying label on the
Smith Building end of the cable. Coordination with BYU-Idaho IT Infrastructure personnel shall
be made to determine the sequence of numbers to use.
19
• Backbone cable jackets shall be labeled with their pair sequences as the leave splice cases in
utility vaults.
9.2 Example of Labeling Horizontal Station Cable Faceplates
In reference to faceplate diagram below
• AAA = 3 letter building designation. Each building has a 2 or 3 letter designator. Consult with a
representative of BYU-Idaho IT Infrastructure to know the correct building designator.
• ### = Room number that cable location is in. Sometimes a room has a letter designator to go
along with the room number. This letter designator shall be part of the faceplate label.
• 1= Position of faceplate in the room. Rooms with multiple faceplates shall be labeled starting
with the location to the left of the main entrance of the room and rotate around the room
clockwise. A room with three separate face plates would be labeled 1 through 3 clockwise going
around the room.
• ABC = Letter designator for position of individual cable in faceplate.
• An example of a real face plate label could be: TAY -224-1 (this is only an example and shall not
be used verbatim on future installations)
m AAA qpp 1-J j
9.3 Guidelines for Labeling of Fiber Optic Cables
• A label shall be applied that calls out each strand in a fiber optic cable.
• Labels shall be left hanging in the front of the LIU on both ends of the fiber cable.
• Fiber labels shall match on both ends of the fiber.
99
• Jackets of fiber optic cables shall be wrap labeled with their sequence and range where they
leave a splice case in the utility vault.
9.4 Example of Labeling Fiber Optic Cabling
AAA -###-BSM -12 3
• AAA = 3 letter building designation. Each building has a 2 or 3 letter designator. Consult with a
representative of BYU-Idaho IT Infrastructure to know the correct building designator.
• ### = Designates the TR room or the Entrance Facility where the far end of the fiber is
terminated.
• BSM = Backbone Single Mode. This calls out the mode of the fiber and distinguishes the cable as
either backbone or riser fiber. A fiber designated for Multi Mode Riser use would be RMM for
Riser Multi Mode.
• 123 = Designates the strand count. This would be 123'd strand in that sequence.
• An example of a real single mode backbone fiber 8th strand label in the Taylor building TR might
be: TAY -107 -BSM -008. (this is only an example and shall not be used verbatim on future
installations)
Section 10: Demolition of Cabling and Infrastructure
Cables are typically considered a valuable resource even when they are not connecting a current
network device. Cables that are not connecting devices usually shall be left terminated in place for
possible future use. Arbitrary demolition of cable simply because they are not currently being used shall
not occur. In the event of a remodel or reworking of a space it often becomes necessary to remove old
cabling or unused cabling from a building. When a cabling system becomes outdated and due for
upgrade, the old cabling system must be completely demolished and removed.
10.1 Guidelines for Cable Demolition
• Cable that is to be demolished shall be completely removed end to end. No remnants of the
cable shall be left in the ceilings, walls, pull boxes, or device boxes.
• When a cable system is upgraded no left over components of the old system shall be savaged
and used in the new system. This includes jacks, patch panels, and cable lengths.
• When a contractor is commissioned to do demolition work that contractor shall be responsible
for the complete demo and discard of all aspects of the infrastructure to be demolished.
• Any damage by a contractor to infrastructure during the demolition process shall be the
responsibility of that contractor.
21
• In the event of a building re -cable the cable demo and new cable installation shall be closely
coordinated with representatives of IT Infrastructure to minimize and or mitigate down time to
connected users of the cables in question.
Section 11: Miscellaneous
• BYU-Idaho adheres to any new standards and codes that may be applicable that are not a
current part of this document. Anyone doing work on the BYU-Idaho cable plant is expected to
follow above mentioned new codes and standards.
• BYU-Idaho considers all standards, codes, and best practices applicable that are outlined in the
BICSI Publication TDMM 12. (Telecommunications Distribution Methods Manual 12th Release)
• Any exceptions or suggestions that deviate from this standard must be discussed with and
approved by members of the BYU-Idaho IT Infrastructure team.
• The BYU-Idaho IT Infrastructure team desires to take a roll in the overall design of cabling
solutions and network systems of new constructions in conjunction with contracted engineers.
The IT Infrastructure team shall design TR layout, information outlet locations, and network
equipment placement strategies.
• Those who shall understand and adhere to this document include:
o All employees of a cabling contractor doing work on the campus of BYU-Idaho.
o All technical staff of BYU-Idaho that may have dealings in the cable plant.
o All involved with the design, consulting, and implementation of new construction.
