remorse construction company it was the general race contractor on a construction project for the will county adult pension center here in gage plastic hardware to supply the door frames and hardware for that project  thirty five thousand dollars which is the social controversy i believe this is a very simple and clear cut case the issue is whether on the clear meaning of the contract the contradiction in the plans and specifications between the drawers in fourteen instances on the plans of this project the architect specify that each door and door required a lot in this there was only one place in the specifications that  the ten thousand dollars so they're requesting twenty four thousand dollars for the locks to face apply the excess of three hundred forty and we are requesting ten thousand dollars for the lot for the balance of the locks that we supply now you that it's a very complex set of contract documents there were four pages of plans and specifications there were incorporated in the purchase order between l g morris and classic credit for the one that we are dealing with regretfully had a contradiction and there was a contradiction a mistake by the architect if you what he listed three hundred forty lock cylinder is for the cavernous when there were seven hundred thirty  contain the language of all language that we refer to are the the two documents that they say they're obligated to you know the the floor plans and the specifications those are where those two notes and requirements of specifications are contain i don't think the court relied upon however it should not properly been in the record because on the four corners of the document the particular dispute or controversy that we're referring to is resolved this resolved there are seven hundred thirty what you're saying do we have to find that classic hardware was a labor subcontractor know or are they did not supply labor they supplied only materials however but that the specifications you recall referred not only to work but also to quantities so the quantity is what they are purchased war related to the quantity of locks is not a matter of labor but that the resolving paragraph that you're talking about doesn't these which may make anything mean everything or nothing of leisure and frankly that's what this trade usage argument is it basically says you may say in the contract that everything that's required is his is our obligation b plans and those are the two documents that they contend is their sole duty to look into but their duty under the purchase order was to look into all the plans and all the specifications and not just you know the door part of this happened to be in the drawer hardware section they're all exactly the same you know there there is no difference between them their doors in their drawers and their seven hundred thirty eight of them you know if there's no indication of wire the three forty would go as opposed to seven thirty eight you know the cabinets are in connection with this particular situation you know it was not incumbent on the architect you know that the risk of the architects missed out on was allocated in the specifications to the supplier and  well no we lost money on the extra you know we didn't we didn't get any we didn't get any extra money for this mistake it wasn't our banished that there would be a conflict with the class and it was just part of the way the contract allocated the rest was a huge contract contract that the dictionary definition of specify means to distinguish an object from other things and page fifteen of her order judge pickering garofalo that there was no type of law and so that's why he prepared the three hundred forty he first the three hundred forty one now where these other locks were or what these it in other locks were supposed to be mr fully and and and  supplier hardware suppliers they don't generally look at the interior elevations because it deals with things that have nothing to do with them but ok they have three hundred forty locks of this sort in the hardware specifications so they hardware that means yours phrases that means that it's the i described in the door hardware specifications and door frame door t the idea about about we're is it's located in the present occasions in miscellaneous items on the door hardware schedule it doesn't say last illness itself three hundred forty lock cylinders open it's a full schedule of the seven hundred thirty eight locations where there are doors and doors on the on the plan specifications i'm sorry on plans and there was no contradiction of the testimony there was it was on because it was really only a matter of county and fast we did ask that question of his expert mr foley and he said he kept saying well ordinarily someone else has a this is don't correct it's there are seven hundred thirty eight instances where there are doors there are fourteen years of the he he argued that there was nothing that alerted him to even look here however there are fourteen instances on the planes which
