What is the purpose of the standard?

The Standard, IACDS S-Tolerances-2 2017, is intended to create trust, clarity and certainty between planners, contractors and building owners.
Planners should be able to rely on the fact that minimum tolerances are maintained in the concrete cutting industry at the quoted prices. The Standard, IACDS S-Tolerances-2 2017, represents the minimum. If planners require more accuracy this must be clearly stated in the tender specification documents. Tolerances tighter than those specified in the Standard will justify charging a higher price.
Each country
This Standard document is a proposal for those countries that don´t have their own national standards. You can check these national standards in chapter 3 of this publication.
It is recommended that members should make the Standard a constituent part of their general conditions of business. Members are recommended at least to append this Standard to every quotation or tender, and by doing so make it an integral part of their offer.
