UALIFICATIONS
<br />1. The plans and specifications referenced herein are to be implemented
<br />nder the competent supervision of a builder or contractor licensed in
<br />he State of Florida. Unless otherwise directed by the building plans or
<br />hese specifications, the builder or contractor is to rely on experience
<br />nd conventional practice for site preparation, construction sequencing,
<br />nstallotion procedures, forming, shoring, curing, etc.
<br />. The Engineer of Record waives any and all responsibility and liability
<br />or problems which arise from failure to follow these plans or where
<br />Ions have been implemented by unlicensed or otherwise unqualified
<br />ersons.
<br />3. These drawings meet the minimum requirements of the 2010 Florida-
<br />1.
<br />Where, in any specific case, different sections of this specification or
<br />he plans specify different materials, methods of construction or other
<br />equirements, the strictest provision shall govern. When there is a conflict
<br />etween a general requirement and a specific requirement, the specific
<br />equirement shall be applicable. (ref. FBC2010 - Building 102.1)
<br />. The various Parts, Sections, Subsections and Articles of this
<br />Specification are interdependent and, except as otherwise provided, the
<br />ertinent provisions of each Part, Section, Subsection and Article shall
<br />pply to every other Part, Section, Subsection and Article. (ref. NDS 1.3)

<br />This plan is hereby certified, by the licensed professional whose
<br />gnoture and seal appear hereon, to meet Chapter 16 of the 2010
<br />orido Building Code. No certification is expressed or implied for
<br />ectrical, plumbing, mechanical, surveying, or architectural elevations and
<br />,nderings that may appear on this plan. No certification is expressed
<br />implied for the structural adequacy of pre-engineered or
<br />-e-manufactured buildings, structures, components, systems, or

<br />SCOPE, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, PROFESSIONAL STANDARD OF CARE
<br />I. The use of the word 'certify' or 'certification' in the contract
<br />Documents only constitutes an expression of professional opinion
<br />-egording those facts or findings that are the subject of the certification,
<br />ind does not constitute a warranty or guarantee, either expressed or

<br />:onstrued to create on expectation of perfection or infallibility or a
<br />Standard of strict liability that undermines the professional standard of
<br />;are of reasonableness.
<br />?. The standard of care for professional engineering and related services
<br />Derformed or furnished is that care and skill ordinarily used by members
<br />)f the engineering profession in good standing practicing under similar
<br />:ircumstonces at the some time and in the some or similar locality. The
<br />_ngineer of Record may be expected to use due care in the preparation
<br />)f the contract documents. Such due care may include reasonable inquiry
<br />and reliance upon representations of the architect, owner, contractor,
<br />Jelegoted professionals, manufacturers, and representatives of the

<br />SHORING, BRACING FORMING LOADING
<br />1. Any structures are designed to be self-supporting and stable after
<br />instruction is fully completed. It is solely the contractor's responsibility
<br />o determine erection procedure and sequence and to ensure the safety
