Q2. A was the architect for a construction project being built by C for O. The specifications called for soundproof tile for certain room ceilings. C wanted to put in tile of a certain brand that the manufacturer represented as soundproof A insisted that another, more expensive brand be used. C claimed this would be an extra and demanded a change order. A claimed that as judge of performance, he was ruling that the tile that the contractor wanted to use did not meet the contract requirements. C used the tile specified by A and, after completion of performance, demanded that he be paid extra for the tile he had used. A instructed O not to pay because the tile used was required under the contract and because the contract required that a written change order be issued before there could be extra payment for any work. Is A correct in his position? (Assume that no tiles are actually
soundproof, but that the tile demanded by A resisted sound better and cost more than the tile C wanted to use.) 20 points
