    This document provides coefficients for use in a Contract Price Adjustment Formula for civil engineering construction works. It lists coefficients for categories of work that determine the adjustment of contract prices based on fluctuations in the costs of labor, plant, materials and fuel. The coefficients are intended as guidelines and may be amended depending on contract requirements. Notes provide additional guidance on applying the coefficients for roadworks with or without bitumen and treating major materials as special components.

    Coefficients

    Coefficients for use with the Contract Price Adjustment Formula (CPAF) for
    Works of Civil Engineering Construction
    It is stressed that the coefficients provided below are issued as a basic guideline only and are
    subject to amendment, depending on the specific requirements and variations contained in
    differing types of contracts.

    8 CONCRETE WORKS (RESERVOIRS AND OTHER


    GENERAL CIVIL ENGINEERING WORKS)
    0.25 0.15 0.55 0.05
    9 CONCRETE WORKS (MAJOR STRUCTURES) 0.15 0.20 0.55 0.10
    Notes:
    1) On roadwork contracts where bitumen is excluded from the escalation formula and treated as a
    “special material”, the coefficients detailed under 3.1(b), 3.2(b), 4(b), 5(b) and 6(b) should be
    used.
    2) Where there is a major component in a contract, such as cement (in the construction of a
    concrete road or a large dam) or reinforcing steel (in the construction of a large concrete
    structure), then consideration should be given to treating these components as “special materials.”
    This is consistent with the provisions of the General Conditions of Contract for Construction Works,
    2010 (GCC 2010). This may also apply to major materials for specialist Subcontractors.
    3) The coefficient for fuel may need to be revised from time to time, as it has a tendency to increase
    out of proportion to the other factors in the CPA Formula.
    4) Accepting the fact that the coefficients are offered as a basic guideline only, it is
    proposed that where modification of the coefficients is required for a specific category of work, this
    should be resolved at the site inspection or, where necessary, renegotiated with the Client.
