Answer to Question 1

It is disadvantageous for an owner if a surety takes over a construction project after a contractor defaults because owners lose control of their own projects and the sureties are then in charge of the projects.

Answer to Question 2

One method for preventing restrictive specifications is to include the statement or equal at the end of the specification and this changes the specification into an open specification. Typical open specifications are written using a generic description, with no brand names or manufacturers listed, but they could include material quality, performance characteristics, or test values that have to be achieved for the product.
