3.6 Bidder Eligibility
A. Bidders are required to submit evidence that they have practical knowledge of the
particular work bid upon and that they have the financial resources to complete the proposed work.
Failure on the part of any Bidder to carry out previous contracts satisfactorily, or lack of experience
or equipment necessary for the satisfactory and timely completion of this Project, may be deemed
sufficient cause for disqualification of said Bidder.
B. The Bidder must readily and independently document that the Bidder possesses the
experience, equipment and financial resources necessary for a timely and professional completion
of this project.
C. Irregular Bid Proposals: Bid proposals shall be considered irregular for the
following reasons:
1. If the bid is on a form other than that furnished by the City, if the City's form is
altered, or if any part of the proposal form is detached.
2. If there are unauthorized additions, conditional or alternate pay items, or

irregularities of any kind, which make the proposal incomplete, indefinite, or otherwise
ambiguous.
3. If the bid does not contain a unit price for each pay item listed in the proposal.

5. If the bid is not accompanied by the proposal guaranty specified by the City.
D. Withdrawal of Bid Due to Error:
1. A bidder for a City construction contract, other than a contract for construction or
maintenance of public highways, may withdraw his bid from consideration, if the price bid was
substantially lower than the other bids due solely to a mistake therein, provided the bid was submitted
in good faith and the mistake was a clerical mistake, as opposed to a judgment mistake, and was
actually due to an unintentional arithmetic error or an unintentional omission of a quantity of work,
labor, or material made directly in the compilation of the bid, which unintentional arithmetic error or
unintentional omission can be clearly shown by objective evidence drawn from inspection of original
work papers, documents, and materials used in the preparation of the bid sought to be withdrawn.
2. The bidder shall give notice in writing of his claim of the right to withdraw his bid within two
(2) business days after the conclusion of the bid opening procedure.

Bearing Plate - A plate at the base of the pole that is intended to transfer the
vertical loads of the pole.
Camber {or Precamber) - Pole curvature, induced in fabrication, used to

counteract predetermined pole deflection, such that the pole will appear straight

and ASCE/SEI 48 for details.
Circumferential Weld {C-weld) - A weld joint directionally perpendicular to

7.2 Documentation to be Supplied for the Owner's Approval Prior to

Fabrication.
Documentation includes final design calculations for pole shaft, base plate,
and anchor bolts. The following information shall be supplied:
a. For the loading case with load factors, the total shear, axial forces,
moments, stresses or stress ratios, section moduli, cross-sectional
areas, deflections w/t's for polygonal and D/t's for round cross sections
at all splices, at arm attachment points (top and bottom), and at least
every ten feet (10') along the pole.
b. For the critical loading case, shear and axial forces, moments, stresses,
section moduli, cross-sectional areas at the arm connections, bolt
stresses in the arm connection, and deflection at the end of the arm.
c. Anticipated deflections at the top of the pole and at the ends of the
arms shall be indicated for each pole for the normal, everyday loading
condition of 60°F, no wind, no load factors.
d. For all specified loading cases, reactions and groundline moments shall
be supplied.
e. Detail drawings for each structure type giving weights of structure

components, dimensions, and bill of materials.
f. Assembly instructions and erection drawings. Slip joint lengths and

allowable tolerances. Special handling instructions.

7.3 Test Reports (as requested):
a. Certified mill test reports for all structural material.
b. Certified welding reports for each pole.
c. Impact property test reports showing that the material used in the
poles meets the impact properties.
d. Test reports on coating thickness.
e. Report of pole testing, when required, including photographs, and

diagrams.
8.0 APPROVAL, ACCEPTANCE AND OWNERSHIP
8.1 Final designs must be approved by the Owner or Owner's Representative

before material ordering and fabrication. Material ordering and fabrication
prior to approval will be at Manufacturer's risk. It is understood that
award of this contract does not constitute acceptance of design
calculations submitted with the bid, if corrections are required in the final
structure designs due to Manufacturer's errors, omissions, or
misinterpretations of the specifications, the quoted price shall not change.
Approval of the drawings and calculations by the Owner or the Owner's
Representative does not relieve the Manufacturer of responsibility for
the adequacy of the design, correctness of dimensions, details on the
drawings, and the proper fit of parts.
8.2 After delivery, the poles will be inspected and shall be free of dirt, oil
blisters, flux, black spots, dross, teardrop edges, flaking paint or zinc; and
in general shall be smooth, attractive, and unscarred. Poles not meeting
this requirement shall be repaired or replaced by the Manufacturer at no
additional cost to the Owner. Final decision to repair rather than replace a
pole shall be at the Owner's sole discretion.
8.3 All final drawings shall become the property of the Owner, who shall have
full rights to reproduce drawings and use them as the Owner sees fit.
