These Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction are written to the bidder, before the award of the Contract, and to the Contractor after award. The sentences which direct the Contractor to perform work are written in active voice- imperative mood. These directions to the Contractor are written as commands. For example, a requirement to provide cold weather protection would be expressed as, “Provide cold-weather protection for concrete,” rather than “The Contractor shall provide cold weather protection for concrete.” In the imperative mood, the subject “the bidder” or “the Contractor” is understood. All other requirements to be performed by others have been written in active voice. Sentences written in active voice identify the party responsible for performing the action. For example, “The Engineer will determine the density of the compacted material.” Certain requirements of the Contractor may also be written in active voice, rather than active voice- imperative mood. Sentences that define terms, describe a product or desired result, or describe a condition that may exist are not written in either active voice or imperative mood. These types of sentences that describe a condition use verbs requiring no action. For example, “The characteristics of the soils actually encountered in the subgrade may affect the quality of cement and depth of treatment necessary.” 101.02 ABBREVIATIONS.
