duties and responsibilities assigned to and undertaken by Engineer during the Construction 
Phase, and, in addition, by the exercise of Engineer’s efforts as an 
 experienced and qualified 
design professional, to provide for Owner a greater degree of confidence that the completed 
Work will conform in general to the Contract Documents and that Contractor has 
implemented and maintained the integrity of the design conc

a functioning whole as indicated in the Contract Documents. Engineer shall not, during such 
visits or as a result of such observations of Contractor’s Work in progress, supervise, direct,
