CONSTRUCTION PROJECT QUALITY INSPECTION
Construction quality inspection is an important process to ensure that the construction meets technical, safety and aesthetic standards. This not only protects the property but also ensures the safety of users. Below is the necessary information about construction quality inspection.
1. Inspection in construction quality inspection activities (performed by contractors)
Organizing construction quality inspection is the most important task in the contractor's quality plan to fulfill the commitments in the contract between the project owner and the contractor. Quality inspection is the contractor's responsibility and is the content of the activities of the main contractor, subcontractors and suppliers of materials and equipment to provide the investor with a product that satisfies the requirements, the first of which is quality.
Requirements for the quality inspection program must be specifically stated in the contract documents. To be effective, quality inspection work must be regular and proactive, not interrupted and passive. The project owner needs to be assured that the contractor's quality inspection program is comprehensive and continuously implemented. If the contractor's quality inspection program is only a response to the quality assurance program for the investor to accept the acceptance, that is incorrect and not allowed.
The contractor has agreed to create a final product that complies with all requirements of the contract documents. This is the contractor's sole responsibility and obligation. Construction units must establish a responsibility regime reflected in the quality management system. The quality management system not only aims to control the quality of input materials, control the production line, control operations, and check work steps, but must also include a sampling and testing regime.
The work of testing main materials, semi-finished products, finished products, construction components, tools and equipment installed in the project, and commenting on the conformity with technical standards to perform the next work is the content of quality inspection activities performed by the contractor.
2. Construction quality inspection and assurance (performed by the investor)
Quality assurance through supervision for acceptance is the responsibility of the project owner. Similar to quality inspection, a quality assurance plan benefits the project owner. Without an effective quality assurance plan, the project owner will have to spend a lot of money and time to repair poor quality parts and accept a project with many risks.
Therefore, Article 87 of the Construction Law stipulates: "The investor of a construction project must hire a supervision consultant or perform it himself when he has sufficient capacity to supervise construction activities".
For the investor, when accepting a project, inspection is also required. This inspection work often uses non-destructive methods and when necessary, the organization takes random samples for destructive testing to serve the testing of construction materials.
For example: Determining the strength of structural concrete includes direct strength testing method and strength testing method without damaging the structure, also known as indirect strength testing.
Concrete quality inspection process and content:
4. Inspection in the field of technical diagnosis of construction works
4.1 Kiểm định chất lượng công trình đang sử dụng
To diagnose structures and works, engineers must rely on the results of construction material inspection, structural analysis, measurement methods, understanding of the laws of degradation and corrosion of materials and structures... To diagnose accurately, it is necessary to collect information about the history of construction and exploitation of the work, and past repairs to the work under consideration.
The results of regular inspections, annual inspections, and detailed inspections of works are extremely important information for technical diagnosis of a work. Once again, the role of inspection is extremely important. The results of mechanical tests on materials and structures, non-destructive tests are the basis for technical diagnosis of the quality status of works. The location of the assessment is shown in the diagram above.
4.2 Quality inspection in incident investigation
For the appraisal of construction work incidents, the scope and volume of inspection work is very large. The assessment process is similar to the sequence shown in diagram 2, but due to the nature of each incident, the scale of work, shown in each step, is decided by the person in charge of the appraisal.
On the other hand, when the investigation agency requests an appraisal to serve the litigation of a construction incident, the appraisal organization must have the function of judicial appraisal, performed under the supervision of the investigation agency. However, in all cases, the appraisal organization must demonstrate high professionalism, independence, objectivity and impartiality.
5. Quality inspection and certification of construction quality in our country
We encourage the implementation of construction quality inspections to issue appropriate certificates to ensure safety in operation, exploitation, and protect the interests of the community and the interests of related third parties.
For some construction works, when an incident occurs that can cause a disaster, it is mandatory to inspect and evaluate the quality based on a series of criteria, such as durability, safety in use, environmental safety, fire and explosion safety, and technological safety, before we allow them to be put into operation. We are implementing documents guiding the Construction Law, and this issue has been mentioned in those documents. We briefly describe that sequence in the diagram below.
In recent times, for some important national projects, the Prime Minister has established a State Acceptance Council to inspect the acceptance work of the investor and organization, evaluate the quality level achieved by the project and when the quality is guaranteed, approve the acceptance results of the investor, and allow the official operation. This model is a national form of the above process.
6. Conclude
The task of construction quality inspection and of the Inspection Organization in construction activities at the stages of construction and exploitation is very important. An inspection organization not only needs to have a standard laboratory, with full testing equipment, in the room and on site, but also needs a team of assessment experts.
At the same time, to improve the quality of inspection work, we also see the need for a unified assessment process and standards, avoiding the situation where each center has a different testing method and assessment standards. To do so, in addition to having to compile standards for assessing the technical quality of construction works, regulations on methods and types of testing, and requirements on equipment and implementation time, it is necessary to have a team of engineers and technicians who are trained, qualified and experienced.
Only then can quality inspection work meet the requirements, as a tool to control and assess the quality of construction works.
