All rights reserved. <br /> <br />responsibilities, and authority of the RPR are as set forth in Exhibit D. The furnishing of <br />such RPR’s services will not limit, extend, or modify Engineer’s responsibilities or authority <br />except as expressly set forth in Exhibit D. [If Engineer will not be providing the services of <br />an RPR, then delete this Paragraph 2 by inserting the word “DELETED” after the <br />paragraph title, and do not include Exhibit D.] <br />3. Selecting Independent Testing Laboratory: Assist Owner in the selection of an independent <br />testing laboratory to perform the services identified in Exhibit B, Paragraph B2.01.0. <br />4. Pre-Construction Conference: Participate in a Pre-Construction Conference prior to <br />commencement of Work at the Site. <br />5. Schedules: Receive, review, and determine the acceptability of any and all schedules that <br />Contractor is required to submit to Engineer, including the Progress Schedule, Schedule of <br />Submittals, and Schedule of Values. <br />6. Baselines and Benchmarks: As appropriate, establish baselines and benchmarks for locating <br />the Work which in Engineer’s judgment are necessary to enable Contractor to proceed. <br />7. Visits to Site and Observation of Construction: In connection with observations of <br />Contractor’s Work while it is in progress: <br />a. Make visits to the Site at intervals appropriate to the various stages of construction, as <br />Engineer deems necessary, to observe as an experienced and qualified design <br />professional the progress of Contractor’s executed Work. Such visits and observations <br />by Engineer, and the Resident Project Representative, if any, are not intended to be <br />exhaustive or to extend to every aspect of Contractor’s Work in progress or to involve <br />detailed inspections of Contractor’s Work in progress beyond the responsibilities <br />specifically assigned to Engineer in this Agreement and the Contract Documents, but <br />rather are to be limited to spot checking, selective sampling, and similar methods of <br />general observation of the Work based on Engineer’s exercise of professional judgment, <br />as assisted by the Resident Project Representative, if any. Based on information obtained <br />during such visits and observations, Engineer will determine in general if the Work is <br />proceeding in accordance with the Contract Documents, and Engineer shall keep Owner <br />informed of the progress of the Work. <br />b. The purpose of Engineer’s visits to, and representation by the Resident Project <br />Representative, if any, at the Site, will be to enable Engineer to better carry out the duties <br />and responsibilities assigned to and undertaken by Engineer during the Construction <br />Phase, and, in addition, by the exercise of Engineer’s efforts as an experienced and <br />qualified design professional, to provide for Owner a greater degree of confidence that <br />the completed Work will conform in general to the Contract Documents and that <br />Contractor has implemented and maintained the integrity of the design concept of the <br />completed Project as a functioning whole as indicated in the Contract Documents. <br />Engineer shall not, during such visits or as a result of such observations of Contractor’s <br />Work in progress, supervise, direct, or have control over Contractor’s Work, nor shall <br />Engineer have authority over or responsibility for the means, methods, techniques, <br />sequences, or procedures of construction selected or used by Contractor, for security or
