8.5  Delays Caused by Authorities
lf the following conditions apply, namely:
(a)  the Contractor has diligently followed the procedures laid down by the relevant legally constituted public authorities in the Country,
(b)  these authorities delay or disrupt the Contractor’s work, and
(c)  the delay or disruption was Unforeseeable, then this delay or disruption will be considered as a cause of delay under sub-paragraph (b) of Sub-Clause 8.4 [Extension of Time for Completion].
 
8.6  Rate of Progress  
If, at any time
(a)  actual progress is too slow to complete within the Time for Completion, and/or (b) progress has fallen (or will fall) behind the current program under Sub-Clause 8.3[Program]. other than as a result of a cause listed in Sub-Clause 8.4 [Extension of Time for Completion], then the Engineer may instruct the Contractor to submit, under Sub-Clause 8.3 [Program], a revised program and supporting report describing the revised methods which the Contractor proposes to adopt in order to expedite progress and complete within the Time for Completion.
Unless the Engineer notifies otherwise, the Contractor shall adopt these revised Methods, which may require increases in the working hours and/or in the numbers of Contractor’s Personnel and/or Goods, at the risk and cost of the Contractor. If these revised methods cause the Employer to incur additional costs, the Contractor shall subject to Sub-Clause 2.5 [Employer’s Claims] pay these costs to the Employer, in addition to delay damages (if any) under Sub-Clause 8.7 below.
 
8.7  Delay Damages
If the Contractor fails to comply with Sub-Clause 8.2 [-time for Completion], the Contractor shall subject to Sub-Clause 2.5 [Employer’s Claims] pay delay damages to the Employer for this default. These delay damages shall be the sum stated in the Appendix to Tender, which shall be paid for every day which shall elapse between the Relevant Time for Completion and the date stated in the Taking-Over Certificate.
However, the total amount due under this Sub-Clause shall not exceed the maximum amount of delay damages (if any) stated in the Appendix to Tender.
These delay damages shall be the only damages due from the Contractor for such Default, other than in the event of termination under Sub-Clause 15.2 [Termination by Employer] prior to completion of the Works. These damages shall not relieve the Contractor from his obligation to complete the Works, or from any other duties, obligations or responsible ties which he may have under the Contract.
 
8.8   Suspension of Work
The Engineer may at any time instruct the Contractor to suspend progress of part or all of the Works. During such suspension, the Contractor shall protect, store and secure such part or the Works against any deterioration, loss or damage.
The Engineer may also notify the cause for the suspension. If and to the extent that the cause is notified and is the responsibility of the Contractor, the following Sub-Clauses 8.9, 8.10, and 8.11 shall not apply.
 
8.9   Consequences of Suspension
If the Contractor suffers delay and/or incurs Cost from complying with the Engineer’s instructions under Sub-Clause 8.8 [Suspension of Work]and/or from resuming the work, the Contractor shall give notice to the Engineer and shall be entitled subject to Sub-Clause 20.1 [Contractor’s Claims] to:
(a)  an extension of time for any such delay, if completion is or will be delayed under Sub-Clause 8.4[Extension of Time for Completion], and
(b)  payment of any such Cost, which shall be included in the Contract Price. After receiving this notice, the Engineer shall proceed in accordance with Sub-Clause 3.5 [Determinations] to agree or determine these matters.
The Contractor shall not be entitled to an extension of time for, or to payment of the Cost incurred in, making good the consequences of the Contractor’s faulty design, workmanship or materials, or of the Contractor’s failure to protect, store or secure in accordance with Sub-Clause 8.8 [Suspension of Work].
 
8.10  Payment for Plant and Materials in Event of Suspension
The Contractor shall be entitled to payment of the value (as at the date of suspension) of Plant and/or Materials which have not been delivered to Site, If:
(a)  the work on Plant or delivery of Plant and/or Materials has been suspended for more than 28 days, and
(b)  the Contractor has marked the Plant and/or Materials as the Employer’s property in accordance with the Engineer’s instructions.
 
8.11 Prolonged Suspension
If the suspension under Sub-Clause 8.8 [Suspension of Work] has continued for more than 84 days, the Contractor may request the Engineer’s permission to proceed. If the Engineer does not give permission within 28 days after being requested to do so, the Contractor may, by giving notice to the Engineer, treat the suspension as an omission under Clause13 [Variations and Adjustments] of the affected part of the Works. If the suspension affects the whole of the Works, the Contractor may give notice of termination under Sub-Clause 16.2 [Termination by Contractor].
 
8.12  Resumption of Work
After the permission or instruction to proceed is given, the Contractor and the Engineer shall jointly examine the Works and the Plant and Materials affected by the suspension. The Contractor shall make good any deterioration or defect in or loss of the Works or Plant or Materials, which has occurred during the suspension.
 
 
9  Test on Completion
9.1 Contractor’s Obligations
The Contractor shall carry out the Tests on Completion in accordance with this Clause and Sub-Clause 7.4 [Testing], after providing the documents in accordance with Sub-Clause 5.6[As-Built Documents] and Sub-Clause 5.7 [Operation and Maintenance Manuals].
 
9.2 Delayed Tests
The Contractor shall give to the Engineer not less than 21 days, notice of the date after which the Contractor will be ready to carry out each of the Tests on Completion.
Unless otherwise agreed, Tests on Completion shall be carried out within 1 4 days after this date, on such day or days as the Engineer shall instruct.
Unless otherwise stated in the Particular Conditions, the Tests on Completion shall be carried out in the following sequence: pre-commissioning tests, which shall include the appropriate inspections and (“dry” or “cold”)functional tests to demonstrate that each item of Plant can safely undertake the next stage,(b): commissioning tests, which shall include the specified operational tests to demonstrate that the Works or Section can be operated safely and as specified, under all available operating conditions; and trial operation, which shall demonstrate that the Works or Section perform reliably and in accordance with the Contract.
During trial operation, when the Works are operating under stable conditions, the Contractor shall give notice to the Engineer that the Works are ready for any other Tests on Completion, including performance tests to demonstrate whether the Works conform with criteria specified in the Employer’s Requirements and with the Schedule of Guarantees.
Trial operation shall not constitute a taking-over under Clause 1 0[Employer’s Taking Over].Unless otherwise stated in the Particular Conditions, any product produced by the Works during trial operation shall be the property of the Employer.
In considering the results of the Tests on Completion, the Engineer shall make allowances for the effect of any use of the Works by the Employer on the performance or other characteristics of the Works. As soon as the Works, or a Section, have passed each of the Tests on Completion described in sub-paragraph (a), (b) or (c), the Contractor shall submit a certified report of the results of these Tests to the Engineer.
If the Tests on Completion are being unduly delayed by the Employer, Sub-Clause 7.4 [Testing] (fifth paragraph) and/or Sub-Clause 10.3 [Interference with Tests on Completion] shall be applicable.
If the Tests on Completion are being unduly delayed by the Contractor, the Engineer may by notice require the Contractor to carry out the Tests within 21 days after receiving the notice. The Contractor shall carry out the Tests on such day or days within that period as the Contractor may fix and of which he shall give notice to the Engineer.
If the Contractor fails to carry out the Tests on Completion within the period of 21days, the Employer’s Personnel may proceed with the Tests at the risk and cost of the Contractor. The Tests on Completion shall then be deemed to have been carried out in the presence of the Contractor and the results of the Tests shall be accepted as accurate.
 
9.3  Retesting
If the Works, or a Section, fail to pass the Tests on Completion, Sub-Clause 7.5 [Rejection] shall apply, and the Engineer or the Contractor may require the failed Tests and Tests on Completion on any related work, to be repeated under the same terms and conditions.
 
9.4  Failure to Pass Tests on Completion
If the Works, or a Section, fail to pass the Tests on Completion repeated under Sub-Clause 9.3[Retesting], the Engineer shall be entitled to:
(a)  order further repetition of Tests on Completion under Sub-Clause 9.3:
(b)  if the failure deprives the Employer of substantially the whole benefit of the Works or Section, reject the Works or Section (as the case may be), in which event the Employer shall have the same remedies as are provided in sub. Paragraph(c) of Sub-Clause 11.4[Failure to Remedy Defects]; or
(C)  issue a Taking-Over Certificate, if the Employer so requests.
In the event of sub-paragraph(c), the Contractor shall then proceed in accordance with all other obligations under the Contract, and the Contract Price shall be reduced by such amount as shall be appropriate to cover the reduced value to the Employer as a result of this failure. Unless the relevant reduction for this failure is stated for its method of calculation is defined) In the Contract, the Employer may require the reduction to be (1) agreed by both Parties (in full satisfaction of this failure only) and paid before this Taking-Over Certificate is issued, or (ii) determined and paid under Sub-Clause 2.5[Employer’s Claims] and Sub-Clause 3.5[Determinations].
 
 
10  Employer’s Taking Over
10.1 Taking Over of the Works and Sections
Except as stated in Sub-Clause 9.4 [Failure to Pass Tests on Completion], the Works Shall be taken over by the Employer when (i) the Works have been completed in accordance with the Contract, including the matters described in Sub-Clause 8.2 [time tor Completion and except as allowed in sub-paragraph (a) below, and (ii) a Taking-Over Certificate for the Works has been issued, or is deemed to have been issued in accordance with this Sub-Clause.
The Contractor may apply by notice to the Engineer for a Taking-Over Certificate not earlier than 14 days before the Works will, in the Contractor’s opinion, be complete and ready for taking oven lf the Works are divided into Sections, the Contractor may similarly apply for a Taking-Over Certificate for each Section.
The Engineer shall, within 28 days after receiving the Contractor’s application
(a)  issue the Taking-Over Certificate to the Contractor, stating the date on which the Works or Section were completed in accordance with the Contract, except for any minor outstanding work and defects which will not substantially affect the use of the Works or Section for their intended purpose (either until or whilst this work is completed and these defects are remedied); or
(b)   reject the application, giving reasons and specifying the work required to be done by the Contractor to enable the Taking-Over Certificate to be issued. The Contractor shall then complete this work before issuing a further notice under this Sub-Clause.
If the Engineer fails either to issue the Taking-Over Certificate or to reject the
Contractor’s application with the period of 28 days, and if the Works or Section (as the case may be)are substantially in accordance with the Contract, the Taking-Over Certificate shall be deemed to have been issued on the last day of that period.
 
10.2  Taking Over Of Parts of the Works
The Engineer may, at the sole discretion of the Employer, issue a Taking-Over Certificate for any part of the Permanent Works.
The Employer shall not use any part of the Works (other than as a temporary measure which is either specified in the Contract or agreed by both Parties) unless and until the Engineer has issued a Taking-Over Certificate for this part. However, if the Employer does use any part of the Works before the Taking, Over Certificate is issued:
(a)  the part which is used shall be deemed to have been taken over as from the date on which it is used.
(b)  the Contractor shall cease to be Liable for the care of such part as from this date, when responsibility shall pass to the Employer, and
(c)  if requested by the Contractor, the Engineer shall issue a Taking-Over Certificate for this part.

The Contractor shall carry out these Tests on Completion as soon as practicable before the expiry date of the relevant Defects Notification Period.
If the Contractor incurs Cost as a result of the Employer taking over and/or using a part of the Works, other than such use as is specified in the Contract or agreed by the Contractor, the Contractor shall (i) give notice to the Engineer and (ii) be entitled subject to Sub-Clause 20.1[Contractor’s Claims] to payment of any such Cost plus reasonable profit, which shall be included in the Contract Price. After receiving this notice, the Engineer shall proceed in accordance with Sub-Clause 3.5 [Determinations to agree or determine this Cost and profit. If a Taking-Over Certificate has been issued for a part of the Works (other than a Section), the delay damages thereafter for completion of the remainder of the Works shall be reduced’ similarly, the delay damages for the remainder of the Section (if any) in which this part is included shall also be reduced. For any period of delay after the
date stated in this Taking-Over Certificate, the proportional reduction in these delay Damages shall be calculated as the proportion which the value of the part so certified bears to the value of the Works or Section(as the case may be)as a whole. The Engineer shall proceed in accordance with Sub-Clause 3.5[Determinations] to agree or determine these proportions. The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply to the daily rate of delay damages under Sub-Clause 8.7[Delay Damages], and shall not affect the maximum amount of these damages.
 
10.3  Interference with Tests on Completion
If the Contractor is prevented, for more than 1 4 days, from carrying out the Tests on Completion by a cause for which the Employer is responsible, the Employer shall be deemed to have taken over the Works or Section(as the case may be)on the date when the Tests on Completion would otherwise have been completed.
The Engineer shall then issue a Taking-Over Certificate accordingly, and the Contractor shall carry out the Tests on Completion as soon as practicable, before the expiry date of the Defects Notification Period. The Engineer shall require the Tests on Completion to be carried out by giving 14 days’ notice and in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Contract.

(a)  an extension of time for any such delay, if completion is or will be delayed under Sub-Clause 8.4[Extension of Time for Completion], and
(b)  payment of any such Cost, which shall be included in the Contract Price.
After receiving this notice, the Engineer shall proceed in accordance with Sub-Clause [determinations] to agree or determine these matters.
 
13.8  Adjustments for Changes in Cost
In this Sub-Clause, “table of adjustment data” means the completed table of adjustment data included in the Appendix to Tender. If there is no such table of adjustment data, this Sub-Clause shall not apply.
If this Sub-Clause applies, the amounts payable to the Contractor shall be adjusted for rises or falls in the cost of labor, Goods and other inputs to the Works, by the addition or deduction of the amounts determined by the formulae prescribed in this Sub-Clause. To the extent that full compensation for any rise or fall in Costs is not covered by the provisions of this or other Clauses, the Accepted Contract Amount Shall be deemed to have included amounts to cover the contingency of other rises and falls in costs.
The adjustment to be applied to the amount otherwise payable to the Contractor, as valued in accordance with the appropriate Schedule and certified in Payment Certificates, shall be determined from formulae for each of the currencies in which the Contract Price is payable. No adjustment is to be applied to work valued on the basis of Cost or current prices. The formulae shall be of the following general type:
Pn=a+ b Ln +c En +d Mn +….
Lo   Eo    Mo
Where
“Pn is the adjustment multiplier to be applied to the estimated contract value in the relevant currency of the work carried out in period “n”, this period being a month unless otherwise stated in the Appendix to Tender; “a” is a fixed coefficient, stated in the relevant table of adjustment data, representing the non-adjustable portion in contractual payments;
“b”,"c","d”…are coefficients representing the estimated proportion of each cost element related to the execution of the Works, as stated in the relevant table of adjustment data; such tabulated cost elements may be indicative of resources such as labor, equipment and materials;“Ln”,”En”,”Mn”… are the current cost indices or reference prices for period “n”, expressed in the relevant currency of payment, each of which is applicable to the relevant tabulated cost element on the date 49 days prior to the last day of the period (to which the particular Payment Certificate relates); and “LO”,”Eo”,”Mo”,…are the base cost indices or reference prices, expressed in the relevant currency of payment, each of which is applicable to the relevant tabulated cost element on the Base Date.
The cost indices or reference prices stated in the table of adjustment data shall be Used. If their source is in doubt, it shall be determined by the Engineer. For this purpose, reference shall be made to the values of the indices at stated dates (quoted in the fourth and fifth columns respectively of the table for the purposes of clarification of the source; although these dates (and thus these values) may not correspond to the base cost indices.
In cases where the” currency of index” (stated in the table) is not the relevant currency of payment, each index shall be converted into the relevant currency of payment at the selling rate, established by the central bank of the Country, of this relevant currency on the above date for which the index is required to be applicable.
Until such time as each current cost index is available, the Engineer shall determine a provisional index for the issue of Interim Payment Certificates. When a current cost index is available, the adjustment shall be recalculated accordingly.
If the Contractor fails to complete the Works within the Time for Completion, adjustment of prices thereafter shall be made using either (i) each index or price applicable on the date 49 days prior to the expiry of the Time for Completion of the Works, or (ii) the current index or price: whichever is more favorable to the Employer.
The weightings (coefficients) for each of the factors of cost stated in the table(s) of Adjustment data shall only be adjusted if they have been rendered unreasonable, unbalanced or inapplicable, as a result of Variations.
 
14  Contract Price and Payment
14.1  The Contract Price  
Unless otherwise stated in the Particular Conditions
(a)  the Contract Price shall be the lump sum Accepted Contract Amount and be subject to adjustments in accordance with the Contract;

(b)  deductions shall be made at the amortization rate of one quarter(25%)of the amount of each Payment Certificate(excluding the advance Payment and deductions and repayments of retention) in the currencies and proportions of the advance payment, until such time as the advance payment has been repaid.
If the advance payment has not been repaid prior to the issue of the Taking-Over Certificate for the Works or prior to termination under Clause 15[Termination by Employer], Clause 16 [Suspension and Termination by Contractor] or Clause 19[Force Majeure] (as the case may be), the whole of the balance then outstanding shall immediately become due and payable by the Contractor to the Employer.

(C)  If these installments are not defined by reference to the actual progress achieved in executing the Works, and lf actual progress is found to be Less than that on which the Schedule of Payments was based, then the Engineer may proceed in accordance with Sub-Clause 3.5[Determinations] to agree or determine revised installments, which shall take account of the extent to which progress is less than that on which the installments were previously based.
If the Contract does not include a Schedule of Payments, the Contractor shall submit non-binding estimates of the payments which he expects to become due during each quarterly period. The first estimate shall be submitted within 42 days after the Commencement Date. Revised estimates shall be submitted at quarterly intervals, until the Taking-Over Certificate has been issued for the Works.
