One thing is sure that the name of the input fields must be unique other wise validation is gonna apply to single field only.

you can use item index ( random or serial numbers ) to make the the names unique. 

<form id="myform">
    <input type="text" name="bids[spec_attributes][0][name]" /><br/>
    <input type="text"  name="bids[spec_attributes][1][size]"/><br/>
    <input type="text"  name="bids[spec_attributes][2][email]"/><br/>

    <input type="text" name="bids[spec_attributes][10][name]" /><br/>
    <input type="text"  name="bids[spec_attributes][11][size]"/><br/>
    <input type="text"  name="bids[spec_attributes][12][email]"/><br/>
    <input type="submit" />
</form>

and in JS

$(document).ready(function () {

    $('#myform').validate();
    $('input[type="text"]').each(function () {
      $(this).rules('add', {
          required: true
      });
    });

});
