Reference specifications for engineering work

Link copied

Access the reference specifications for civil engineering work and annexures.

Annexures

Annexures are additional documents that modify the reference specifications by additions, deletions or amendments. They need to be submitted and referenced with the specification. 

Annexures can include drawings, charts, tables or technical data that explain specific aspects of the civil engineering project. 

The annexures take precedence over any inconsistent provisions in the reference specification, in particular, the technical needs for the project. 

  1. Review the reference specifications. 
  2. Identify additional details or specific requirements that are relevant to the project. 
  3. Collect any supporting documents, drawings or references that support the information you are adding to annexures. 
  4. Provide detailed information. Be concise, use bullet points, tables, diagrams or any visuals to enhance clarity. 
  5. Incorporate and monitor changes and updates to the annexure.

You can either mark up a paper copy of the annexure or edit the file in Microsoft Word. 

Make sure you clearly identify the project in the header or text of the annexure, as each annexure is job-specific.

If edited in Microsoft Word, insert the project description or contract serial number into the document header. Alternatively, write the project description or contract serial number into each section of a printed and hand-written document.

Note

You can also modify the reference specification with a 'job specification'. If both annexure and job specification are used, the job specification takes precedence.
