Description

These Standard Specifications for the Construction of Roads and Bridges on Federal Highway Projects are issued primarily for constructing roads and bridges on Federal Highway projects under the direct administration of the Federal Highway Administration. These specifications are cited as "FP-03 U.S. Customary Units" indicating "Federal Project" Standard Specifications issued in 2003 and converted to United States customary measure units. U.S customary units were previously referred to as English units and are the units of measurement customarily used in the U.S. today. When designated in a contract, the FP-03 becomes part of the contract and binding upon all parties to the contract. All construction contracts of the Federal Highway Administration are also governed by the following regulations: Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Title 48, Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter 1; and Transportation Acquisition Regulation (TAR), Title 48, Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter 12. The FAR and TAR regulations are not included in the FP-03. A complete copy of the FAR is available from the Superintendent of Documents, Congressional Sales Office, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. U.S. customary measure units are used in the FP-03 U.S. Customary Units as authorized by the Waiver Request of DOT Metric Policy.
