INTRODUCTION
It is difficult during a visit to a construction site to memorise all of the details that need to be
checked and while the obvious ones stand out, many other items that should be checked are
forgotten. Supervisors may get distracted or over extended due to time constraints and
overlook items that may have more serious consequences later in the project.

These Check Lists provide a guide to the inspections that are required on site for a particular
project. They can be referred back to the specification if the full text of the particular item is
required. The Check Lists will remind you of some potential problems in materials,
workmanship, and coordination between trades.

Project specific checks may be added to the Check Lists for individual projects and the
experience of Supervisors can be shared by the addition of particular checks on items or
operations that are generally of concern on site.

Provide one copy of the Check Lists book to the Supervisor and one copy to the Contractor
for the particular project.
HOW TO USE THESE CHECK LISTS
Take photocopies of the relevant Check List sections before going on site and study these.

Mark any items in the Check List that are of particular concern.

At the project site, check off the work against the Check Lists and make notes of any action
required in the space provided.

When the work is completed and the final check has been made sign off and date in the box
provided. There is also space to provide comments.

Keep a record of all of the completed Check Lists for future reference if required. These could
prove to be valuable if disputes arise on the project.

There is no better way to document actual site conditions or details than by photographs, so
don’t forget to take a camera on site and take images to go with particular items in the Check
Lists.
HOLD POINTS AND WITNESS POINTS SCHEDULES
Read these Check Lists in conjunction with the schedules of Hold Points and Witness points.
Hold Points and Witness Points are scheduled in the RFT/RFQ and are accessible via:
