INTRODUCTION
Quality Control Checklist has been produced as a general guide for the Quality
Control of Road and Bridge Construction Contracts.The Checklists included in this
Manual are based on the Department of Works Specification for Road and Bridge
Works August 1995.

The contract documents take precedence over this Manual and in the event of any
perceived conflict reference is to be made to theProject Manager for clarification.
PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The purpose of this document is to provide a structured approach to QualityControl

of Road and Bridge Construction and to ensure thatthe works are being carried out in
accordance with the requirements of the Specification..These checklists form the
backbone of surveillance of construction activities and are intended to be used on a
daily basis during supervision ofthe works.

The initial suite of Checklist has been developed from the Department of Works
Specification for Road and Bridge Works August 1995.These checklists are seen as
the first stage of development of the Quality Control Manual and further Checklists
are envisaged to be added to the manual as Specifications are reviewed and
incorporated in the system.

REFERENCES
As noted above the checklists form an integral part of Quality Control and the

completed checklists willform the majorityof the Quality Documentation for the
project.Other documentation that will need to be referred to will included:
·Department of Works Specification for Road and Bridge Works August 1995
·Special Conditions ofContract
·Construction Drawings

·The Contract Administration Manual,particularly Procedure CA12-Quality

Control
 ● The Contractors Work Method Statements and Quality Control
Documentation
RESPONSIBILITIES

In accordance with Contract Administration Procedure CA12-Quality Control Field

Inspection,the Project Manager will delegate responsibilities for surveillance of the
work.The DOW staff delegated with this responsibility will use the checklists
included in this document as an aid to inspecting the works.Checklists will be
completed on a daily basis and will be attached to the Daily Diaries in accordance
with Procedure CA10-Daily Diaries and Reports.
When nonconforming work is identified during surveillance non-conformance reports
will be raised and progress of the remedial action is to be monitored in accordance
with CA12.

QUALITYAUDIT PLAN
As noted in the Contact Administration Guide Procedure CA15-Quality Audits,the
Project Manager is responsible for producing a Quality Audit Plan for individual
projects.The purpose of this plan is to identify what sections of the work need to be
audited,who will audit the work and when the audits will take place.

A Project Audit Plan is attached,this is the first phase of developing an Audit

Schedule for a project as during the construction stage some processeswill be carried
out well and would require less auditing and other processes will be seen as being
only acceptable,or even unacceptable and these processes will require more frequent
auditing.

It should be noted that the Auditing scheduled in the Audit Plan is additional to
everyday surveillance activities,and is an opportunity for an independent individual
to review the work practices and quality of the project.

INTRODUCTION
Quality Control Checklist has been produced as a general guide for the Quality
Control of Road and Bridge Construction Contracts.The Checklists included in this
Manual are based on the Department of Works Specification for Road and Bridge
Works August 1995.

The contract documents take precedence over this Manual and in the event of any
perceived conflict reference is to be made to theProject Manager for clarification.
PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The purpose of this document is to provide a structured approach to QualityControl

of Road and Bridge Construction and to ensure thatthe works are being carried out in
accordance with the requirements of the Specification..These checklists form the
backbone of surveillance of construction activities and are intended to be used on a
daily basis during supervision ofthe works.

The initial suite of Checklist has been developed from the Department of Works
Specification for Road and Bridge Works August 1995.These checklists are seen as
the first stage of development of the Quality Control Manual and further Checklists
are envisaged to be added to the manual as Specifications are reviewed and
incorporated in the system.
