["EXPLANATORY NOTES AND INSTRUCTIONS ON THE USE OF THESE MODEL PREAMBLES"]
[]
["1. The document"]
[]
["1.1 This document is published by and is available from the Association of South African Quantity Surveyors, P.O. Box 3527, Halfway House, 1685. Telephone (011) 315 4140. E-mail: administration@asaqs.co.za"]
[]
["1.2 The contents of this document are intended to cover workmanship and materials encountered in a significant majority of projects. If a material is not encountered in a significant majority of projects, its preamble will in all likelihood not be included in this document"]
[]
["1.3 By its very nature, this document is a “Model” document and one that is designed to act as a basis upon which to build. It is anticipated that it will be supplemented by a “Supplementary Preambles” document included in the text of the bills of quantities that will include, inter alia, the following:"]
[]
["1.3.1 supplementary clauses of a general nature that practitioners may deem necessary to cover their own individual requirements,"]
[]
["1.3.2 additional clauses pertaining to specific materials incorporated in a project and not covered by the Model Preambles,"]
[]
["1.3.3 amendments to anything contained in the Model Preambles. A clause has been incorporated in the “General” section of the document stipulating that anything contained in the “Supplementary Preambles” which is at variance to that which is contained in the Model Preambles, will take precedence over the Model Preambles and apply to the works in hand"]
[]
["1.4 It is intended that this document will be used by reference only in the text of the bills of quantities and will NOT be bound or reproduced therein"]
[]
["2. The basic philosophy"]
[]
["2.1 Wherever possible, reference has been made throughout the preambles to South African National Standards (SANS) to describe materials and methods respectively. It is therefore incumbent on the users of these preambles to have ready access to the relevant Specifications and Codes. Where such Specifications or Codes do not exist, suitable preambles have been compiled"]
[]
["2.2 These preambles have been designed to assist in abbreviating descriptions in the text of the bills of quantities and practitioners are encouraged to make use of this facility. e.g. The description of a stormwater catchpit would read:"]
[]
["“Brick stormwater catchpit size internally 600 x 400 x 1 200mm deep to invert fitted with and including a 450 x 300mm x 59kg cast iron grating and frame”"]
[]
["2.3 Wherever alternatives exist in respect of materials or workmanship, specific choices have been made in these preambles. Should users require different choices to specific items, these should be referred to in the Supplementary Preambles as outlined in clause 1.3"]
[]
["3. Additional notes in the use of these Model Preambles"]
[]
["3.1 Concrete, Formwork and Reinforcement"]
[]
["The Project Specification embodied in these preambles was compiled in collaboration with the Authors of SANS 1200G, which forms the basis for the Concrete, Formwork and Reinforcement model preambles"]
[]
["Users of these preambles are advised to submit a copy of the Model Preambles to the Engineers involved in a project for their scrutiny. Any amplifications, amendments, etc required by individual Engineers would then be incorporated in the Supplementary Preambles referred to in item 1.3"]
[]
["3.2 Roof Coverings"]
[]
["The roof coverings included in these Model Preambles are limited in their content and therefore any roofing material not included in these Preambles will need to have its full preamble included in the Supplementary Preambles"]
[]
["3.3 Structural Steelwork"]
[]
["The comments made under item 3.1 apply equally to Structural Steelwork"]
[]
["Note that the protective treatment of the structural steel covers only the treatment up to and including the primer (and patching after erection). The finishing coats of paint must be fully described and included either in the “Structural Steelwork” or in the “Paintwork” trade, as the practitioner wishes"]
