Are these considered Division 0 documents or should they be included in an Appendix?

They have no relationship to the project until they are completed and entered into the project record. We sometimes refer to some of them under an 006000 Project Forms heading as information. But we do not include the forms anywhere. The project manual is not meant to contain anything and everything you can think of; tell the reviewer you'll hand out samples at the PreCon just in case this is the first project any of the bidders has competed.

Phil. HUD has gotten very tough lately, this year HUD is requiring Radon Prevention specs in Project manual even if there aint no radon to be found in So Florida.

Next thing HUD will be requiring life boat specs down there in South Florida in case the pumps fail! What's next? Jerome J.

We ain't got no pumps, you must be thinking of New Orleans? Maybe you are referring to the sea level rise that is affecting portions of South Beach? Most of the HUD work is on the mainland, no where near the beach.
