in what part of the contract do we find the "Schedule of Values"?

Wow, this is a new type of question for this message board. 

This depends on whay type of contract your looking at, but the schedule of values, which is the portion of the contract the gross price of the job is broken down on a per construction/activity task basis is typically an exhibit or attachement to the contract itself. On mor sophistacted jobs, it can be build into the schedulin software itself in addition to the contract. 

Hope this helps, and best of luck with your studies.

It depends on the type of bid/funding system for the project. For instance, if it's a lump sum project, there may be no requirement for a schedule of values and instead just paymnet milestones on completion of certain portions or work. On more sophisticated commerical contracts, the request for proposal can set forth the individual sections of work it wants scheduled total build costs for, and if it doesn't, almost any buider would provide that anyway. The portion of the contract setting forth the categories of the work to be completed is usually an exhibit/attachement to the contract and can certainly be referred to as a specification in some circumstances, though I don't typically think of the SOV as a specification myself.
