Visits to the construction site and observations made by the Engineer shall not relieve the contractor of its obligation to conduct comprehensive inspections of the work sufficient to insure conformance with the intent of the contract documents, and shall not relieve the construction contractor of its full responsibility for all construction means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures necessary for coordinating and completing all portions of the work under the construction contract and for all safety precautions incidental thereto. 17. Construction Observation - If so agreed, the Engineer will furnish the services of an on-site construction representative(s) to provide observation of the work of the contractor during the period of construction. The construction representative will make out periodic reports of construction progress and will prepare monthly estimates as the basis for payments to contractor as construction proceeds. The construction representative will endeavor to guard the Owner against defects and deficiencies in the work of the contractor and help determine if the provisions of the contract documents are being fulfilled.

The Engineer shall not be responsible for any aspects of a shop drawing submission that affect or are affected by the means, methods, techniques, sequences and operations of construction, safety precautions and programs incidental thereto, all of which are the contractor's responsibility.

Record Drawings - If so agreed and upon substantial completion of the work, the Engineer shall provide the Owner a set of record drawings based on information provided by the contractor which illustrate the reported location of work and reported materials and equipment installed. In that record drawings are based on information provided by others, the Engineer cannot and does not warrant their accuracy. 20. Americans With Disabilities Act - With specific respect to design requirements of the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), and its amendments, or with state or local accessibility regulations, the Client agrees to waive any action against the Engineer and to indemnify and defend the Engineer against any claim arising from Engineer's alleged failure to meet ADA design requirements prescribed. The Client understands that interpretations of ADA are legal issues and not design issues and, accordingly, retention of legal counsel by the Client for purposes of interposition is advisable. 21. Dispute Resolution - All claims, disputes or controversies arising out of, or in relation to the interpretation, application or enforcement of this Agreement shall be decided through mediation as adopted and described by the American Arbitration Association. The parties further agree that the Owner will require, as a condition for participation in the project and their agreement to perform labor or services, that all contractors, subcontractors, and material persons and their insurers and sureties shall agree to this procedure. 22. Services Exclusivelyfor Owner - Services provided within this Agreement are for the exclusive use of the Owner. 23. Severability - The Client and the Engineer have entered into this Agreement of their own free will to communicate to one another mutual understandings and responsibilities. Any element of this Agreement later held to violate a law or regulation shall be deemed void, and all remaining provisions shall continue in force. However, the Client and the Engineer will in good faith attempt to replace an invalid or unenforceable provision with one that is valid and enforceable, and which comes as close as possible to expressing or achieving the intent of the original provision. In the event that an invalidated provision would otherwise have required the Client to compensate the Engineer, as to honor an indemnification or for any other reason, the amount of money in question shall automatically be considered an additional fee due to the Engineer, irrespective of the invalidity of the provision in question. 50f6 3/93(d) Standard Provisions of Agreement for Engineering Services . ~ -~ 24.
