I. INTRODUCTION

This Manual will serve as reference manual for the personnel working in the Project
Management Unit (PMU), Project Implementation Units (PIUs) and Design & Supervision
Consultants (DSCs) during the implementation of Uttarakhand Integrated & Resilient Urban
Development Program (UIRUDP). This Manual focuses primarily on the contract award,
supervision and quality control of construction works carried out under this Program.
This chapter of the Quality Assurance/Quality Control Manual presents the Program’s
background, defines quality-related terms, and gives an outline of the Manual.

A. Background

1. Objective: - The primary objective of the Program is to promote sustainable growth and
poverty reduction in Uttarakhand urban sector staring with the program towns and thereafter
in the other towns in the state. Specifically, the Program will (i) provide sustainable basic
urban infrastructure and services to all citizens of the Program towns; and
(ii) strengthen the capacities of the Program towns to plan and manage urban water supply
and sanitation system in a more effective, transparent, and sustainable manner. While the
Program will benefit the entire urban community in general, some components will focus on
upgrading the conditions of the poorest and most needy groups in the slum areas in particular.
The Program will also promote active participation of women citizens in municipal
management and Program implementation as both beneficiaries and agents.

2. Program Towns of the six urban centers in the Uttarakhand State, 2 towns (Dehradun &
Nainital) are selected for the implementation of this Program. The towns are selected based
on eight criteria viz., population, population growth rate, economic growth potential, district
headquarter, educational centre, yatra terminal, yatra route and financial capability. The
Program Towns selected/identified are Nainital and Dehradun.

3. Program Components. The Program comprises two parts:

(i) Part A - Uttarakhand Integrated & Resilient Urban Development Program (UIRUDP)
covers the improvement and expansion of the following municipal infrastructure
and services:
• Urban water supply;
• Sewerage and sanitation;
• Storm water drainage;

UUSDA, UIRUDP 1
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

(ii) Part B - is designed for institutional development and capacity building of the
municipal service providing agencies in implementation, operation, maintenance
and management of the assets built under the program and delivering high quality
services in a sustainable manner. This generally covers
• Financial and institutional reforms;
• Procurement of works, goods and services;
• Implementation and quality control;
• Private sector participation;
• Awareness building in regard to solid waste management, environmental and
social safeguards, protection of assets and participation in program sustainability;
and
4. The Program is unique and complex, due to
(i) Major infrastructure development drive in the State;
(ii) The spatial locations of 2 towns (Nainital & Dehradun) in tranche -1 spread across the State.
(iii) Multiple construction or procurement contracts of different nature and participation
by various agencies.
5. In view of this complexity, it is essential and important to put in place a comprehensive,
consistent, and common system for quality assurance and control during implementation.
Preparation of this Manual is an attempt to ensure above-said objectives.

B. Definition of Quality

Quality is the totality of features and characteristics of a product or service that bear on its
ability to satisfy a given need. The term 'given need', in case of Program works, can be
interpreted as the functional requirements. The quality of outputs is always agreed upon
between the supplier and the client (in sub project works, contractor and the owner), and the
quality objective must be to achieve zero defects. It can be made possible only by ensuring
the quality at all stages of Program works.

The following are some definitions pertaining to quality and approach to achieve them:
(i) Quality. Conformance to requirements.
(ii) Quality Control (QC). The operational techniques and activities (such as reviewing,
checking, inspecting, testing, etc.) that are used to fulfill requirements for quality.
(iii) Quality Assurance (QA). The planned and systematic actions necessary to provide
adequate confidence that the work will satisfy quality requirements.
(iv) Quality System (QS). A set of documented processes, which seek to provide
confidence that the Program outputs will fulfill the functional requirements. The
Quality System should encompass the organization, responsibilities, human
resources, materials, equipment, processes, inspections, testing and other parameters
of the Program. A key element of QS is the QA/QC Manual.
(v) Quality Surveillance. This normally covers two aspects:
• At the Program level, a review to ensure that the quality practices are
implemented and documented in relation to the quality system; and
• At the contract package level, inspection and testing to ensure that the works
executed meet the required quality standards.

C. Quality Assurance / Quality Control Manual

This QA/QC Manual focuses on the implementation activities of the Program following
contract award, and primarily on supervision and quality control of construction works.
Other aspects of Program implementation are also covered but in less detail. The QA/QC
Manual is intended to be used primarily by the Program staff of the Implementing
Agencies and the Supervision Consultants.

The QA/QC Manual for the Program does not attempt to suggest technical specifications,
since these are stated in the contract documents. Its aim is to ensure that the works are
executed as per specifications, i.e. it is looked at as a means to achieve the end results.
Quality control and test results shall be interpreted as applicable for different packages, in
accordance with the contract conditions.
The subsequent Chapters of this Manual are as follows:

• Organization, Responsibilities and Authorities;


• Design Control
• Construction Quality Control – General;
• Control of Materials and Equipment Components;
• Control of General Civil and Structural Works;

III. DESIGN CONTROL


This chapter outlines the final design preparation and review processes under the Program and
presents basic review criteria for design. As discussed in Chapter II, the responsibilities for the
preparation of final design and drawing under the Program vary depending on the contracting
procedure, which are as follows:

✓ For water supply and sewerage components under turnkeycontracts, the final designs
are prepared and submitted by the Contractor, reviewed DBOC by the PIU and DSC
and approved by the PMU. Preliminary designs and estimates for tendering purposes
are prepared by DSC and reviewed by PMU.
✓ For all other item rate contracts (such as roads, storm water drainage, buildings, sites
and services), the designs are prepared by Contractors, reviewed by PIUs and DSC,
and approved by PMU.

The flow, handling and control of documents during design preparation and review are discussed
in Chapter X of this Manual while the requirements for the design control are outlined in the
following sub-sections.

3.1 Design Preparation Process

Designs shall be prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Program (Keeping in
consideration that physical work can commence before 120 days which is considered for
design after award of Contract) and applicable design standards and criteria, codes,
specifications, and methodology. Final designs prepared by Contractors on turnkey contracts
shall be based on the preliminary designs prepared by Contractors (DSC).

For design calculations performed by computer, the design Engineer shall verify design inputs
and check outputs for reasonableness and compliance to requirements. Calculations prepared
by hand shall be rechecked. The Design Engineer shall check the prepared designs and
documents for completeness, correctness and legibility.

Design documents and calculations shall be reviewed by Team Leader (DSC) to ensure that
the design method is acceptable and in accordance with the contractual design criteria, codes
and standards, that the inputs are correct and the outputs reasonable.

Drawings will be prepared by computer aided design methods. Regarding design calculations,
the designer shall check drawings for completeness, correctness, legibility and conformance
to the design calculations, design standards, codes and specifications. Drawings shall be,
reviewed by a Senior Engineer.

Design documents, calculations and drawings shall be signed and dated by the Design
Engineers and the reviewing by Senior Engineer / Key Expert.

UUSDA, UIRUDP
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

3.2 Design Review Process

The design reviewer (PIU/ DSC) shall examine the design documents, and if there are any
comments, prepare comment sheets and mark up a copy of the documents. If
designs need to be reviewed by more than one person or agency, the primary reviewer shall
consider the comments of other reviewers, discuss them as needed, and incorporate them
into the marked-up copy of the document.

Each design document and drawing shall be reviewed for compliance with contract
requirements and specifications, applicable standards, codes and criteria. If the reviewer
questions the accuracy of calculations or dimensions established by the Designer, he/she
shall ask the Designer to verify them but shall not change them himself/herself.

3.3 Design Review Checklist

A basic design review checklist is as follows:

✓ Check document revision number and revision date (if applicable).


✓ Check that the document has been signed by the designer and reviewer.
✓ Verify the list of reference drawings and sources of special information and, as
necessary, refer to the listed documents.
✓ Check the general notes for clarity and completeness.
✓ Review contract plans, specifications, addenda and all approved change orders, and
check that the document complies with them.
✓ Check the accuracy and completeness of a representative set of calculations.
✓ Consider the aspect of constructability.
✓ Comment on the drawing, specification, addendum or other document as appropriate.
✓ Return the documents to the Contractor for review comments for necessary
correction in submission.

✓ Specific items to be checked depending on the type of facility being designed.

IV. CONSTRUCTION QA/QC

This chapter provides an overview of construction quality control activities, including testing and site
inspection. Materials control requirements are presented in detail in Chapter V, while specific testing
and inspection requirements for each category of works are presented in Chapters VI throughIX of
this Manual.

4.1 Introduction

Construction Quality Control (CQC) is intended to provide a comprehensive, common and


consistent framework for quality control across various Contract packages. CQC comprises
two main elements of quality control:

✓ Testing; and
✓ Inspections

Testing control covers the type of tests to be carried out, frequency of testing and stage of
testing. Inspection control covers the timing of inspections, what has to be inspected and the
procedures for inspection.

CQC should be affected at five stages:


✓ Input Materials and Equipment Components;
✓ In-process Activities;
✓ Stage Completion;
✓ Interfacing (of special importance in water supply and sewerage contract packages);
and
✓ Final Completion.
The Contractor is responsible to inform the PIU/DSC giving sufficient notice time so they can
witness the test.

4.2 Testing
Various site tests on materials and works are required to be carried out by the
Contractor during construction. A well-equipped and properly operating site test laboratory
is an important element of the Quality Assurance Plan. A checklist showing typical testing
equipment to be provided in the contractor’s site laboratory is presented in Table IV-1.
The Contractor shall set-up the site laboratory at the start of his sub project and informs
the PIU / DSC for conducting inspections. Laboratory equipment shall be properly calibrated,
and PIU / DSC, as necessary, should keep calibration certificates at the laboratory for their
review. Specialized tests at outside laboratories shall only be undertaken with the prior
approval of the PIU.
Tests should be performed in accordance with the contract documents, as described in
Chapters V through VIII of this Manual. The control of test reports shall be done as
stipulated in Chapter X of this Manual. All test samples should be preserved with proper
identification numbers, test log reference, test date, and other applicable information. These
samples must be stored on site by the contractor.

In addition to tests performed on site, the contractor is responsible for specialized tests that are
performed at approved laboratories and for factory inspections and tests performed by manufacturers
or third parties during the manufacturing of various materials and equipment components, as
stipulated in the contract documents.

4.3 Site Inspections

Site inspections shall be carried out to ensure that the materials and construction activities conform to
the prescribed standards. Site inspections can be divided into day-to-day supervision and periodic
quality inspection. The suggestions in respect of these two have been elaborated herein.

4.3.1 Day-to-day Supervision

The day-to-day site supervision of all construction activities shall be carried out by Field
Engineer (PIU / DSC). This includes checking of lines, levels and layouts and on-site
checks. Progress monitoring and expediting shall also be carried out by PIU / DSC. The
supervisory team of the (PIU / DSC) shall ensure that materials that have been rejected or
for which a conformance report has not yet been issued are not used in works.

Construction equipment is a major component of quality assurance system. The equipment


requirements have been laid out in the Contract documents. It is necessary that the PIU /
DSC check the adequacy of the equipment used by the contractor for construction as per
the prescribed standards and specifications. The equipment used for construction
shall be recorded in the daily logs as per F-13.

4.3.2 Periodic Quality Inspections

The PIU/DSC shall carry out periodic quality inspections during in-process, stage
completion, interfacing and final completion, and during all critical activities as per the
following examples:

✓ Excavation;
✓ Formation of embankments;
✓ Placing of reinforcing steel;
✓ Concrete batching and pouring;
✓ Hot mix operation;
✓ Laying of pavement layers;
✓ Laying and jointing of pipes;
✓ Installation of electrical and mechanical equipment; and
✓ Testing, trial runs and commissioning of electro-mechanical equipment and plants.

The PIU / DSC shall also inspect the materials certified by manufacturers and materials and
equipment components approved by third parties upon delivery to the site. The contractor
shall give advance notice to the PIU / DSC when critical activities are proposed or major
equipment items are to be delivered. Activities undertaken when the PIU/DSC is not present
will be recorded by PIU/DSC in the site instruction book and verified by the PIU/DSC
13

UUSDA, UIRUDP
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022
during periodic site visits.
On completion of one stage of the construction and before proceeding to the next stage (such
as from sub-base to base in road works or from steel binding to concreting for RCC works),
the PIU/DSC shall inspect and certify the quality of the works completed before granting
approval for the next stage of the works to start. The final inspection shall encompass tests
on completion and trial runs. The PIU/DSC certification of quality will be based on the
documents and the periodic site visits.

4.3.3 Squad Checks

The concept of Squad Checks has been adopted to have an external review of quality of
works executed. PIU/ DSC should conduct the squad checks jointly.A fixed time table is
not suggested for this, but the recommended return period is once in a month. The tentative
agenda for the squad checks is described as follows:

✓ Physical inspection of the works under execution and inspection of quality of


workmanship;
✓ Review of site documentation and contractor compliance;
✓ Sample verification of test reports and quality certificates;
✓ Review of issues, constraints and lacunae in quality system implementation;
✓ Preparing of action plans for improving the quality; and
✓ Performance appraisal of the contractors.

Formats for recording minutes of progress review meetings and for recording interim
evaluations of contractor’s performance are included in Appendix C, as Format F - 16 and
Format F - 17 respectively.

4.4 Quality Certification and Acceptance

The PIU/DSC shall be responsible to certify that the items included in the Contractor’s
Interim Payment Certificate satisfy the required quality of works and are acceptable with
regard to the specifications and standards prescribed under the contract before the progress
bill is passed for payment. PMU should signify acceptance of the PIU/DSC quality
certification by countersigning it. A format for this quality certification and acceptance is
included in Appendix C, as Format F - 18.

IX. QUALITY CONTROL OF ELECTROMECHANICAL WORKS

This chapter of the QA/QC Manual gives an overview of the quality control requirements for
electromechanical works, such as water treatment and supply systems, sewage treatment plants,
pumping systems, and power supply and distribution systems. The requirements for testing and
control of input materials and components, including manufacturers’ certification and Third Party
Inspections, are outlined in Chapter V.
Materials and components to be incorporated into electromechanical works shall be inspected by
PIU / DSC as soon as they are delivered, to ensure that they meet the specifications and design
requirements, are in agreement with shipping documentation, and are accompanied by
manufacturer’s certifications or Third Party Inspection certificates, as applicable. Accepted materials
and equipment shall be properly stored by the Contractor until needed. If manufacturer’s installation
instructions conflict with design or contract requirements, the PMU, PIU and DSC shall be notified
immediately. Installation shall proceed only after the conflict has been resolved.
A series of inspections and tests during installation and completion of electromechanical works
shall be performed by the contractor or the equipment manufacturer and witnessed by PIU / DSC,
as follows:
(i) Preparatory Inspections. Prior to installation, the civil and structural works where
electromechanical equipment is to be installed shall be inspected to ensure conformance
with designs and equipment installation requirements;
(ii) Installation Inspections and Tests. A system of inspections and tests, as specified in the
contract or recommended by the equipment manufacturer, shall be employed throughout
movement to position and installation of equipment and systems. Inspections shall be
performed by PIU/DSC at critical points during installation. PIU/DSC shall provide the
surveillance throughout the progress of work to ensure that installation is performed in
accordance with the contract requirements, approved drawings, acceptable workmanship
standards and configuration control requirements. All field modifications and retrofit
work shall be performed under the surveillance of the PIU / DSC installation Inspector;
(iii) Installation Verification Inspections. Prior to all mechanical and electrical testing,
verification inspections shall be performed to ensure that equipment has been
satisfactorily installed;
(iv) System Tests. These tests shall be conducted as appropriate to demonstrate that the
installed systems are free from damage due to shipment and installation, and that
equipment performs in accordance with specifications;
(v) Integrated Tests. After completion of system tests, integrated tests shall be performed to
demonstrate that the system performs satisfactorily when connected to its interfacing
systems or sub-systems. Commissioning Tests will follow up these tests;
(vi) Commissioning Tests. These consist of a series of tests performed under service operating
procedures to demonstrate compatibility of the physical plant with operating procedures;
and
(vii) Final Inspections. Final inspections shall be performed to ensure that the completed work
is in accordance with the contract and that all previously identified discrepancies have
been resolved satisfactorily.

X. DOCUMENT CONTROL
Document Control is intended to provide a consistent framework for transmittal, receipt, recording,
processing, filing and retrieval of documents, and to ensure commonality in formats. The most
important documents for QA/QC are final design documents, test reports and instructions. A flow
chart for control of these documents is shown in Figure X-1. Document control procedures,
including guidelines for correspondence control, are outlined in the following sub-sections.

10.1. Design Document Control

As discussed earlier (see Chapter III), final design documents (drawings, calculations, estimates,
etc.) are generated at three separate levels, depending on the contracting procedure and type of
work. These factors have been considered in suggesting the design document control system.

1 0 . 1 . 1 Turnkey Contracts

The flow of final design documents prepared by the contractor in turnkey contracts shall be as
follows:

(i) The Contractor shall submit three copies of design documents to PIU for review, using
the Request for Design Approval (RDA) Format F - 1 of Appendix C;
(ii) The PIU shall send one copy of the documents to DSC for review and comments, using
the Request for Internal Design Review (RIDR) Format F - 2 of Appendix C;
(iii) After review, the DSC shall return the documents with its comments, using the Internal
Design Review Note (IDRN) Format F - 3 of Appendix C;
(iv) Taking into account the comments of DSC, the PIU shall return the design documents
to the contractor, using the Design Transmittal Note (DTN) Format F - 4of Appendix
C. Design documents shall be marked (or stamped) ‘Approved’, ‘Approved as Noted’
or ‘Not Approved’;
(v) For design documents marked ‘Not Approved’, steps (i) to (iv) above shall berepeated.
For documents noted ‘Approved’ or ‘Approved as Noted’, the contractor shall submit
originals to PIU for affixing ‘Approved’ signatures (using a format similar to Format
F - 1);
(vi) The PIU shall have the design documents signed ‘Approved’ and return them to the
contractor (using a format similar to Format F - 4); and
(vii) The design document details are to be recorded in the contractor’s Design/Drawing
Register, using the Format F - 5 of Appendix C. (Similar registers shall also be kept
by PIU / DSC).

UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

10.1.2. Design Built Contracts (Wending Drawings)

The design documents are prepared by the Contractor. The flow of documents is summarized
below.

(i) Copies of design documents prepared by Contractor shall be forwarded to PIU/ DSC for
review, using the Request for Internal Design Approval (RIDA) Format F – 1/Format
F-2 of Appendix C with copy to PMU for information;
(ii) After review, DSC shall forward to PMU the documents with its comments, using the
Internal Design Review Note (IDRN) Format F - 3 of Appendix C;
(iii) Taking into account the comments of PMU, PIU and DSC for modification, if any, the
PIU shall return the design documents to Contractor, using the Internal Design
Transmittal Note (IDTN) Format F - 9 of Appendix C. Design documents shall be
marked (or stamped) Recommended for approval as ‘ Noted’ or ‘Not Approved’;
(iv) For design documents marked Recommended for approval as noted ‘Not Approved’,
steps 1 to 3 above shall be repeated. For documents noted ‘Approved’, the Contractor
shall submit originals to PIU/DSC for affixing ‘Approved’ signatures (using aformat
similar to Format F - 8);
(v) After the design documents have been signed ‘Approved’ for construction, they shall be
transmitted to the Contractor by PIU, using the Approved Design Release Note
(ADRN) Format F - 6 of Appendix C;
(vi) The document details are to be recorded in the Contractor’s Design/Drawing Register,
using Format F - 7 of Appendix C. (Similar registers shall also be kept by PIU/ DSC);
(vii) The detailed construction drawings prepared by Contractor and approved by PIU. PIU
will send documents to DSC for review.

10.2. Test Report Controls

All the tests and field checks are to be carried out as per the applicable quality control requirements.
The tests are carried out by the Contractor who will designate an Engineer as the laboratory-in-
charge authorized to sign test reports for him. The witnessing officer will sign the reports and put
his name and designation. The flow of test report documentation shall generally be as follows:
(i) Test reports shall be submitted by the Contractor to the PIU.
(ii) The PIU shall forward a copy of the test reports to DSC for its review in Its monthly
report along with Contractor’s monthly report.
(iii) The PIU/DSC shall issue a Conformance/Non-Conformance Report (CNC Report) to
the Contractor after review of test results by the PIU/DSC, using Format F - 10 of
Appendix C. The CNC Reports will have a running serial number for each contract
package;
(iv) The CNC Report shall be entered in the Test Report Log by the Contractor at the site,
using Format F - 11 of Appendix C. The details of input materials will be recorded
in the Material Register, using Format F - 12 of Appendix C. The Contractor shall
maintain all test records properly.

53
UUSDA, UIRUDP
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

Other approvals given to the contractor will be recorded in the daily logs of the contractor, which
should form part of the contractor’s monthly report. A recommended format for Daily Work
Record/Site Order Book is illustrated in Format F - 13 of Appendix C.

Similar procedures shall be followed for the transmittal and review of test reports for tests
performed at outside laboratories, for manufacturers’ certificates, and for third party inspection
reports.

10.3. Tracking of Instructions

During the process of construction, different agencies are expected to conduct site visits and instruct
the Contractor to ensure quality and timely construction within the costs to the extent possible. The
multiplicity of agencies is a special feature of the Program. Hence, there may be some ambiguity in
the instruction flow if these are not transmitted and recorded properly.

All the instructions to the Contractor shall flow through the Employers Representative of the PIU.
The instructions are of the following types:

(i) Variation orders for variation in form, character, quantity or costs, issued by
PIU/PMUs, using Format F - 14 of Appendix C;
(ii) All instructions related to the contract administration including approval of the
contract variation orders, time extensions, notices related to rate of progress etc
(iii) Instructions issued during site visits or inspections of the DSC/PIU. which are
normally recorded in the contractor’s Site Order Book, shown in Format F - 13 of
Appendix C; and
(iv) Instructions issued during review meetings in the form of minutes, letters, etc.

All instructions noted above are to be recorded by the Contractor in the Instruction Log, using
Format F - 15 of Appendix C. Instructions also include notices of rejection of work inspected
because it was found to be non-conforming to requirements and which has to be redone or rectified.

10.4. Site Order Book

The Contractor shall be responsible to maintain a Site Order Book, at the site of the works at all
times, and this shall be opened for inspection by authorized representatives of PIU/DSC.
The Site Order Book has two primary purposes – to record the day-to-day instructions to the
Contractor and the Contractor’s compliance with these instructions, and to record the inspection and
acceptance of work completion stages along with issuing approvals to the Contractor to proceed with
the next stage of construction.
As noted above, the status of the Contractor’s compliance with instructions issued is to be
summarized in the Instruction Log (Format F - 15 of Appendix C), and reviewed monthly by the
PIU and during the periodic Squad Checks. In cases where the Contractor has failed to comply with
the instructions, the reasons therefore shall be determined and necessary remedial actions taken.

UUSDA, UIRUDP 54
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

10.5. Correspondence Control

Out-going letters (including transmittal letters and notes) originating from various organizations
involved in the Program (DSCs, PIU), Contractors, manufacturers, etc.) shall be signed only by
the designated sub project executive of that organization (for example PM-PIU, DSC Team
Leader).

All letters should have a reference code and number, and should refer to a single subject only,
which shall be clearly stated on top of the letter, after the recipient’s address. All outgoing letters
should be numbered sequentially. All replies should be referred to the originator’s reference code
and number along with subject.

Incoming correspondence should be stamped and dated, and preferably given an internal reference
code and number. All incoming and outgoing correspondence should be logged chronologically,
either in computer correspondence registers or in manual correspondence logs.

Copies of outgoing correspondence and originals of incoming should be filed in chronological


files at the document center of each project organization. There should be only one chronological
file for all outgoing correspondence. Regarding incoming correspondence, there could be more
than one chronological file, based on the volume of correspondence expected to be received from
project related organizations (for example PIU / DSC can maintain separate incoming
chronological files for each contractor, etc.).

10.6. Inspection of Site Documentation

During site visits and inspections, PIU / DSC will check and follow up with the documentation
maintained on site by the contractor, as follows:

(i) Check the Design/Drawing Register and ensure that the approved designs and
drawings are being used during construction;
(ii) Check the Test Report Log and ensure that PIU/DSC (Employers Representative)
issues a Conformance Report for the materials being used;
(iii) Check the Material Register and cross-check the material test reports with inward and
consumption entries of the Material Register;
(iv) Check the Instruction Log and the Daily Work Record/Site Order Book and ensure
that the instructions, as recorded in these registers and issued through any letters or
minutes of meeting, are being implemented by the contractor;
(v) Check the Daily Logs and ensure that the standard of works and documentation is of
acceptable quality;
(vi) Deviations, if any, are to be recorded in the Site Order Book and a copy circulated by
the contractor to the PIU/DSC.
(vii) The registers that are verified by the PIU / DSC are to be signed by them.

Appendix B - INSPECTION CHECKLISTS


Appendix B - 1: Inspection Checklist for Concreting Works

Item Remark
Proportioning, Batching and Mixing of Concrete
The materials and proportion of concrete materials as established by the
preliminary test for mix design should be rigidly followed.
• Concrete should be produced only by weigh batching the aggregates. The
accuracy of the weigh batcher should be periodically checked and the needle
should be adjusted to zero when the hopper is empty. Only a mechanical mixer
machine with a hopper arrangement should be allowed for mixing concrete.
• The quantity of water actually entering the mixing drum should be checked with
the reading of the gauge or valve setting, when starting a job. The batch should
be charged into the mixer so that some water enters the drum in advance of
cement and aggregate. All water should be in the drum by end of the first 15
seconds of the specified mixing time. Each batch would be mixed until the
concrete is uniform in color at least for a period of two minutes after all the
materials and water are in the drum.

Placing of Concrete
• Before any concrete is placed the entire placing program consisting of
equipment, layout, number of labors engaged, proposed procedures and methods
should be submitted to the Employers Representative for approval. The
Employers Representative must satisfy himself that the arrangement for mixing
and conveying concrete will ensure a nearly continuous flow of concrete during
depositing; contractor’s labor force won’t be overworked affecting quality of
work, sufficient overlap isallowed between concrete placing crews working at
subsequent shifts, and sufficient lighting arrangements are made if concreting is
allowed in the night.
• The Employers Representative must also satisfy himself that the concrete mix
design is based on truly representative samples of aggregate and cement which
will be actually used during concreting. While taking representative samples
from different stacks of aggregates for checking of gradation and other tests a
scoopor shovel with sides should be used so that the larger stones won’t roll
off the side.
• Before the concrete is actually placed in position, the inside of the formwork
should be inspected to see that they have been cleaned and oiled. All
reinforcement and other items to be cast in concrete should have cleansurfaces.
All reinforcement should have sufficient cover, as specified in the contract,
which should be ensured by using proper size cement mortar spacerblocks.
The reinforcement fabrication should be finally checked ensuring proper
length and spacing between reinforcement bars, proper orientation (verticality/
horizontality) of reinforcement bars and stirrups and adequate provision of
development length.
• Concrete must be placed in its final position before the cement reaches its

104

UUSDA, UIRUDP
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

Item Remark
initial set and concrete should normally be compacted in its final position
within 30 minutes of leaving the mixer.
• Concrete should be deposited as nearly as practicable directly in its final position
and should not be re handled or caused to flow in a manner which would cause
segregation, loss of material or displacement of reinforcement. Concrete should
be placed in the shuttering by shovels or other approvedimplements and should
not be dropped for a free fall from a height more than 1.0
m. When it is necessary to use transfer chutes the Employers Representative must
satisfy himself in respect of type, length, slopes, baffles, vertical terminals and
timing ofoperations. To allow for loss of mortar against the sides of the chute,
the first mixes should have less coarse aggregates. Concrete should not be
permitted to fall free from the end of the chute by more than 1.0 m and chutes
should have slopes not flatter than 1 vertical : 3 horizontal but not steeper than 1
vertical : 2 horizontal.
• Concrete once started, should be continuous until the pour is completed and
would be placed in successive horizontal layers of uniform thickness preferably
ranging from 15 to 90 cm. Concrete should be placed as rapidly as practicable
to prevent the formation of cold joints between each succeeding layer. The top
surface of each pour and the bedding layer should be approximately horizontal.
• Concrete should be compacted during placing with approved vibrating
equipment and consolidated to maximum practicable density, free of pockets of
coarse aggregate, should fit tightly against all form surfaces, reinforcements and
embedded fixtures. Caution should be exercised not to over vibrate the concrete
to the point of segregation. Tapping or external vibration of forms by hand tool
or immersion vibrator must not be permitted and care should be taken to prevent
contact of immersion vibrators with reinforcing steel or forms of finished
surfaces.
• Concrete should be placed without interruption until completion of part of the
work between predetermined construction joints. If stopping of concrete
becomes unavoidable anywhere, a properly formed construction joint shall be
made where the work is stopped. Joints should be either vertical or horizontal.
For inclined or curved member the joint should be at right angles to the axis
of the member. The construction joint surface should be roughened,
thoroughly cleaned and treated with a thin layer of cement group before
resumption of concreting. Except when placing with slip forms, each
placement of concrete in multiple lift work, should be allowed to set for at
least 24 hours before the start of a subsequent placement.

105

UUSDA, UIRUDP
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

Item Remark
Curing & Protection of Concrete
• During Curing of concrete, preference should be given to use of continuous
spray, or ponded water, continuously saturated covering of sacking, canvas,
hessian or other absorbent material, or approved effective curing compounds
applied with spraying equipment capable of producing a smooth even- textured
coat.
• Fresh concrete should be kept continuously wet for a minimum period of 10
days from the date of placing of concrete, following a lapse of 12-14 hours after
laying concrete. However, curing of horizontal surface exposed to dry wind
should begin immediately after the concrete has hardened. Water should be
applied to formed surfaces immediately uponremoval of forms.
• Immediately after the shuttering is removed, the Employers Representative
should very carefully go over the entire surface of the concrete. Holes left by
form bolts etc. should be filled up and made good with mortar composed of one
part of cement and one and half parts of sand passing 2.36 mm IS sieve.
Superficially honeycombed surface and rough patches should be similarly made
good immediately after removal of shuttering and superficial water and air holes
should be filled in. Themortar should be well worked into the surface with a
wooden float and the surface irregularities should be removed by grinding.
• If reinforcement is exposed or honey combing occurs at vulnerable positions
e.g. ends of beams or columns it may be necessary to cut the member partially
or completely and reconstruct. The Employers Representative decision shall
be final in this regard. If only patching is necessary, the defective concrete
should be cut till solid concrete is reached (or to a minimum depth of 25 mm)
the edges being cut perpendicular to the affected surface or with a small
undercut if possible. Anchors, tees or dovetail slots should also be provided
wherever necessary to attach the new concrete securely in place.

Appendix B - 2: Inspection Checklist for Stone Masonry Work

Items Remarks

• The type of masonry used for structural works should be random masonry
(coursed or uncoursed) or coursed rubble masonry (first sort). For Bridge
Works generally coursed rubble masonry should be used.
• Stones should be sufficiently wetted before laying to prevent
absorption of water from mortar.
• The courses of masonry should generally be of same height. When there is
to be variation in the height of courses, the larger courses are to be placed
at lower levels, height of courses gradually decreasing to the top. The
practice of placing loose mortar on the course and then pouring water from
top must not be allowed.
• The stones used for hearting or interior fillings of the wall face should be
laid on their broadest face that gives a better opportunity to fill the spaces
between the joints.
• The bed, which is to receive the stone, should be cleaned, wetted and covered
with a layer of fresh mortar. All stones should be laid full in mortar and in
vertical joints. Clean chips and spalls should be wedged into the mortar joints
and bed wherever necessary to avoid thick beds or joints of mortar. The face
joints should not be more than 10 mm and 20 mm for coursed rubble and
random rubble respectively.
• All vertical joints should be truly vertical. Vertical joints should be
staggered as far as possible. Distance between the nearer vertical joint
between the upper layer and lower layer should not be less than half the
height of the course.
• Bond stones should be rectangular in shape and should be a through stone
extending from face to back of the wall. For sharp corners, especially in skew
bridges, through stones should also be used to avoid spalling of corners. The
quoins i.e. stones specially selected and neatly dressed for forming an
external angle in masonry work should not be less than as specified in the
contract.

UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

Appendix B - 3: Inspection Checklist for Brickwork and Finishes

Items Remarks

• A representative sample of bricks to be sent for testing of compressive


strength, water absorption etc. should not be less than twenty bricks. These
bricks must be selected at random from the particular batch. For example,
if there are ten stacks of bricks, two bricks should be chosen from each stack
and these must be taken from different positions in each stack.
• All Bricks should be thoroughly soaked in a tank filled with water for a
minimum period of one hour (preferably for 24 hours) prior to being laid.
However, at the time of laying, bricks should be skin dry and clean.
• Mortar should be mixed in the specified proportion only in such quantity as
required for immediate use. Initial setting of mortar with Ordinary Portland
Cement is normally considered to have taken place in 30 minutes and mortar
unused for more than 30 minutes shall be rejected and removed from site of
work.
• All Brickwork should be laid in English Bond and bricks should be laid with
frogs up on a full bed of mortar. Thickness of mortar joints should not exceed
10 mm.
• Before laying bricks in foundation, the foundation slab should be
thoroughly hacked, swept clean and wetted and a mortar layer not less than
12 mm thick should be spread on the surface of the foundation slab.
• When fresh masonry is to join partially/entirely set old masonry, the exposed
/ jointing surface of the set masonry should be cleaned, roughened and
wetted to effect the best possible bonding.
• Brickwork should be cured keeping constantly moist on all faces for a
minimum period of seven days and green work should be protected from
rain by suitable covering.
• The surface of brickwork, which is to be subsequently plastered or painted,
should be squarely raked out to a depth of 15 mm when the mortar is still
green.
• Plastering should be started from top and worked down. The plastering
surface should be finished off with a plasterer’s wooden float. Metal floats
shall not be used.
• Curing for finishes should be commenced as soon as the mortar used for
finishing has been hardened sufficiently, not to be damaged during curing.
Thefinishes should be kept moist for a period of at least 7 days.

Appendix B - 4: Inspection Checklist for Building Services and Finishes

Items Remarks

• Building services and finishes work shall be closely coordinated and be


undertaken in the appropriate sequence.
• Building service requirements including water supply pipes and fittings,
sanitary fittings and appliances, electrical installation, doors and windows
and ventilators etc. shall be inspected for conformance with applicable codes
and specifications.
• All brickwork in the building will be finished with plastering whereas all
stone masonry work will be finished with pointing, if not otherwise specified
in the contract. Where plastering work is required, as part of the finishing
work, all service lines, conduits, pipes, clamps, door and window frames and
all required inserts must be in position before the plastering begins. The
plastering shall be always started from the top and worked down. For
purpose of giving a smooth finish to the plastering work a plasterer’s
wooden float should be used and no metal float should be alowedto use. Where
pointing is required, the pointing will be done to give the surface an
acceptable architectural look. For pointing work, the joints will be raked to
a depth of 40 mm and then mortar will be placed in the joints up to a depth
of 25 mm by using a trowel.
• Painting must be carried out in conformance with specifications.
The painting materials and surface preparation must be checked prior to
painting.
• For all finishes e.g. plastering, pointing, painting or whitewashing the
contractor will first prepare a sample area and on approval of the quality of
finish in the sample area, the contractor will be allowed to apply all over the
building.
• Flooring and roofing work shall be undertaken as required by the
specifications.

Appendix B - 5: Inspection Checklist for Road Works


Items Remarks
• The Employers Representative must check all layout and staking
completed by the Contractor before starting roadwork and must
confirm checking at regular intervals and at completion of the work
to ensure that all work conforms to plans and specifications.
• A careful and thorough check must be made of all subgrade areas
where road materials are to be placed. No road material should be
allowed to be placed unless the Employers Representative has visibly
checked and approved the areas and has verified the quality of
subgrade preparation by testing procedures as provided in the
contract document and elsewhere in this document.
• If a question arises as to the suitability of any of the materials in
meeting the specifications, the Contractor shall be responsible to
provide further field and laboratory testing as may be required and
requested by the field engineer.
• The base on which bituminous layer is to be laid, should be
thoroughly swept clean, free from dust and foreign matter using
mechanical broom and dust removed or blown off by compressed
air. A priming coat, wherever needed, followed by a layer of tack coat
shall be applied on the base before receiving the bituminous layer. A
properly calibrated Bitumen Distributor Tanker having sprayer with
self heating arrangement should be used for laying tack coat / prime
coat. If required, the Employers Representative may ask for test trials
to ensure proper calibration of Bitumen Distributor Tankers in order
to arrive at the correct speed of vehicles, spraying temperatures etc.
• The Employers Representative must inspect Contractor’s Hot Mix
Plant, Bitumen Distributor Tanker / Sprayer, Tipper Trucks, Paver
Finisher, Rollers and other tools and plants to be employed for
bituminous work and satisfy himself with the capacity of the plants
and arrangements made for mixing, laying and rolling of bituminous
courses. The Employers Representative should receive the Job mix
formula for BM/DBM/AC at least 20 days before the start of the
work and must satisfy himself that the job mix formula is based on a
correct and truly representative sample of the materials that will be
actually used in the works.
• For bituminous construction, the temperature of binder at the time of
mixing shall be in the range of 1500C – 1630C and that of the
aggregate shall be in the range of 1550C-1630C. The difference in
temperature between the binder and the aggregate in no time shall
exceed 140C.
• For bituminous construction, mixing of aggregate and binder should
be thorough to ensure that a homogeneous mixture is obtained in
which all particles of the aggregate are coated

110

UUSDA, UIRUDP
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

Items Remarks
thoroughly and uniformly, and the discharge temperature of the mix
should be in the range of 1300C-1600C. The mix should be visually
inspected at the plant after delivery and transported to site by covered
tipper trucks.
• For bituminous construction, the temperature of the mix at the time
of laying shall be in the range of 1200C-1600C and the temperature
should be continuously monitored using a digital thermocouple based
thermometer. Mixes with a temperature of less than 1200C shall not
to be put for laying under any circumstances. While laying with Paver
Finishers, the longitudinal joints and edges shall be constructed true
to the delineating lines parallel to the centerline of the road.
Longitudinal and transverse joints should be delineated at least by
250 mm from those in the lower courses and the joint in the topmost
layer should not be allowed to fall within the wheel path.
• For bituminous construction, after spreading the mix by Paver, the
mix should be thoroughly compacted by rolling with a set of rollers
moving at a speed not more than 5 Km/hour immediately following
the Paver. For BM/ DBM / AC, the initial rolling shall be done with
8-10 T Static Weight Smooth Wheeled Roller, intermediate rolling
shall be done with 8-10 T Static Weight Vibratory Roller or 15-25 T
Pneumatic Tyred Roller and the finish rolling shall be done with 6-8
T Smooth Wheeled Tandem Roller. For Mix Seal Surfacing layer,
rolling should be done with 8-10T Smooth Wheeled Tandem Roller.
The exact pattern of rolling for all types of surfaces should be
established only after a trial compaction run. The rolling should be
completed in all respects before the temperature of the mix falls
below 1000C. The roller should not be permitted to stand on
pavement which has not been fully compacted or where the
temperature of pavement is still more than 700C.
• Traffic on bituminous layer may only be allowed after completion
of the final rolling when the mix cools down to surrounding
temperature.

Appendix B - 6: Inspection Checklist for Pipeline Works

Item Remarks
• The Employers Representative must ensure that pipe bedding has been
prepared in the proper shape as shown in the drawing and properly
compacted. Especially for laying of pipes larger than 1200 mm
diameter, in earth and moorum foundation, the curvature of the bottom
of the trench should match the curvature of the pipe as far as possible,
subtending an angle of 120 degrees at the center of the pipe.
• Wherever a socket or collar of pipe or fitting/ special will occur a grip
should be cut at the bottom of the trench or concrete bed to a depth of
at least 75 mm below the bed of the pipe. When welding is to be
carried out with the pipes and the specials in the trench, additional
excavation of not more than 60 cm in depth and 90 cm in length should
be made at joints in order to facilitate welding.
• The trench should be kept clean and dry before lowering the pipes in
the trench. If subsoil water is met with during excavation contractor
would provide necessary equipment and laborers for dewatering the
trenches.
• Over excavation in regard to depth and top width of trench shouldnot
be allowed in any case. If the depth of trench is over excavated than
required, contractor at his own cost will refill with gravel up to the
required depth and properly compact it. Additional width, if required,
would be provided only in the top portion of the ground level up to
300 mm above the crown of the pipe. If any extra width is provided in
the area below this portion, the contractor shall have to provide lime
concrete or rubble masonry or otherwise to the discretion of Employers
Representative.
• The pipes should be thoroughly investigated for any defects before
lowering in the trench. The socket or spigot end of pipes should never
be allowed to be chipped and any deviation in the dimension of the
pipe should be reported by the contractor. The pipes should be
lowered in the trench with belt slings and special care should be taken
so that no metal bear against the pipe and the bearing is uniform.
• During jointing of pipe special care should be taken so that spigot and
socket of adjoining pipes fit snugly into each other. For RCC pressure
pipes, the dimension of the splayed rubber ring sitting onthe groove
and the clear distance available at the joint location should be checked
with a gauge to ensure proper jointing of pipe.
• For water distribution network projects, water pipes, fittings and
connections must be carefully inspected during placement and verified
112

UUSDA, UIRUDP
UIRUDP – QA / QC Manual 2022

as to compliance with the plans and specifications.


• Connection to existing water supply mains must be scheduled under
provision of the specifications and the field engineer must actively
participate in the arrangements and in insuring that the contractor
performs the work as scheduled.
• Testing of water system must be carried out in the presence of the field
engineer and the entire testing procedure must be carefully checked
including performing leakage testing which must meet standards as
included in the specification.
• The alignment and grade of all pipe, especially the gravity flow sewer
pipes should be thoroughly checked by the Employers Representative
The Employers Representative must ensure that the pipes have been laid
as per the design gradient and should also ensure that the minimum
gradient has been achieved in all sections of sewer line.
• The trenches may be back filled after pipe laying is completed, but the
joints must be kept open. During back filling special care should be taken
to ensure that earth lying below the pipe gets properly compacted by use
of special hand tools fabricated with angled iron. The pipe main should
be constructed with the earth cover as specified in the profile drawings.
However, the earth cover should not be less than 1.0 m from the top of
the pipe except at the locations
• of drainage and pipe crossings.

Appendix E – LIST OF INDIAN STANDARD SPECIFICATION CODES

Appendix E. 1: List of Indian Standard Specification Codes

The procurement of civil works, materials and testing has to conform to relevant Indian Standard
Specification code. The following list contains most of the relevant I.S. codes for types of civil works,
materials and testing to be implemented under the UIRUDP. Although, the list is exhaustive, but still
many of the codes may not be included in it and these have to be identified at the time of preparation
of the bid documents and during execution. The latest version of the code should be used. It will be the
primary duty of DSC and PIU to identify the relevant IS code for the nature of works, material or
testing. If, for any nature of work, there is no IS code then PIU/DSC will decide the appropriate BIS
code or international code to which the procurement should conform.
