Standard Specifications for Construction and Materials
The Department of Public Works has developed Standard Specifications for Construction and Materials (PDF). They are incorporated into our construction contracts by reference. Changes made to the specifications, but not yet incorporated into an addendum, are included in proposal books for construction contracts advertised for bids. These changes are available for engineers to incorporate into contract documents being prepared for advertising.
