willneither relieve the contractor from his contractual obligations and responsibilities, nor does it
limit the owner’s right under the contract.
15. In case, requirement of special items like super sulphated cement, corrosive resistant reinforcement
Steel (CRS) etc. arise due to site conditions, the specific approval of GETCO may be obtained before
using the same and all the tests as per relevant standards shall be carried out.
