Instructions

Instruction for completing the liquidated damages sheets.

I have made it easy for you. Complete the following questions and I will magically take care of
everything else.
No 1. What is the Project No? (Put it in block F6)
No 2. What is the Project Title? (Put in block F-8)

No 4. Type the C.O.'s Name (Put in block F-12)

No 5. Total Liquidated Damages from CES
(Figures obtained from Tab A1)

Dollars/per day

No 7. On the sheet entitled "Determination" there are some inputs that you may/may not need.
They are located in blocks G47-G50 and C-50. These blocks are not locked and you make inputs
directly into them.
As you will notice we now have 2 LD rates, one for the first day (because legal is
involved only on the first day) and one for each day after. These two rates need to both be
identified to your contractor.
