L4. INTRODUCTION TO GUIDE SPECIFICATIONS
This Specification Section was written in cooperation with Architectural Computer Services, Inc. (ARCOM), who are the exclusive publishers and distributors of MASTERSPEC, a product of the American Institute of Architects (AIA). MASTERSPEC Section 01 9113—General Commissioning Requirements—is included in Guideline 0 by special agreement between ASHRAE and ARCOM.
L4.1 The section includes boxed notes that are instructions to guide specifiers during editing of the specifications for a project.
L4.2 The section includes optional text in boldface font and square brackets (e.g., [ optional text ]). These optional text items include text that often occurs and provides an easy way to include these requirements in the master for consideration for each project.
L4.3 The section includes insert instructions in bold type and angle brackets (e.g., < Insert instructions >). These instructions are placed where text must be inserted and provide some guidance about the nature of the text that must be inserted. Insert instructions are used when there are an infinite number
of options that could occur, making the use of [ Optional text ] impractical.
