NYC building specification

I just got done reviewing a 120+ page spec on a refit job out for bid by NYC.

I won't be more specific () to retain anonymity.

BUT will say the 5 or so pages directly relating to the job at hand were completely incomplete and what was there was flat out wrong, as in, not just off but WRONG. And this isn't weird stuff but things that a city of any size would deal with regularly. It should be boilerplate!

Most of the remaining pages were forms for safety and equal opportunity.

Wonder why everything's so expensive?

If a consultant wrote this for one of my dads' jobs he would've been fired on the spot.

Gaa, I'm disgusted.

Pete
