INSPECTION AND GOOD CONSTRUCTION PRACTICES
• An inspection procedure should be set up covering Materials,Records,Workmanship and construction,
• Tests on materials as per Standards,• Use of suitable quality assurance schemes,• Immediately after stripping the formwork,all concrete
shall be carefully inspected and any defect shall be rectified before concrete is hardened.
• To ensure proper performance,it is necessary that each step of concreting is inspected as the work proceeds.

GOOD CONCRETE
• Concrete in the fresh state should be cohesive,so that it can be transported and placed without segregation.
• Many properties of concrete are related to
its compressive strength:
1 Density
2 Impermeability
3 Impact-resistance
4 Abrasion-resistance
![Page 4: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The compressive strength of concrete is dependent on W/Cratio of concrete.
28-day compressive W/C ratiostrength of concrete 43-grade 53-grade (N/mm2) cement cement 30 0.47 0.55 35 0.42 0.50 40 0.37 0.45 45 0.35 0.41 50 0.30 0.37 55 0.28 0.33 60 - 0.32

The W/C ratio also controls the permeability
of concrete.
The construction should result in satisfactory strength,serviceability and long-term durability.

QUALITY ASSURANCE
Qualily assurance in construction relates to:
1 Proper design.
2 Use of satisfactory materials and components.
3Proper workmanship in the execution of works and finally,
4 Proper care during the use of the structure
including timely maintenance and repair..
![Page 7: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The job of Q.C and Q.A would involve quality audit of both the inputs & outputs.
INPUTS in the form of materials for concrete,WORKMANSHIP in all stages of batching,mixing,transportation,placing,
compaction and curing & the related plant,
machinery and equipment resulting in the form of concrete in place.
![Page 8: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Quality assurance Plan shall include:
a)Test reports and manufacturer,s certificate
for materials,concrete mix design details;
b) Pour cards for site organization & clearance for concrete placement;
c)Record of site inspection of workmanship,field tests;
d) Non-conformance reports, change orders;
e)Quality control charts& statistical analysis.

QUALITY CONTROL CHARTS ARE
RECOMMENDED WHEREVER THE
CONCRETE IS IN CONTINUOUS
PRODUCTION OVER CONSIDERABLE
PERIOD.

STANDARD DEVIATION
Standard Deviation is a good measure of Q.C. GOOD control means lower S.D (say 3 or 4 N/mm2). At least 30 test results should be used to calculate Standard Deviation. Each test result is average of 3 cube test results at 28 days.

WORKMANSHIP & CODAL PROVISIONS
• Concrete supplied by RMC plants shall be preferred.
• The grading of coarse aggregate should be controlled by obtaining the coarse aggregate in different size fractions & blending them in right proportions to satisfy the grading limits prescribed in IS 383.
The grading of coarse & fine aggregates should be
Checked as frequently as possible.
![Page 13: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

It is important to maintain the W/C at its correct value.
For this,moisture content of coarse &fine aggregates should be determined as frequently as possible.
![Page 15: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
MIXING OF CONCRETE
• The mixing time should be at least
2 minutes in a drum mixer.
• For more efficient mixers(in a batching & mixing plant or in an RMC plant),the mixing time may be about ½ minute.
(Manufacturer”s recommendation may be
followed)
![Page 16: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
PLACING OF CONCRETE
The concrete shall be placed & compacted
in its final position as early as possible & before initial setting of concrete.
Care should be taken to avoid displacement of reinforcement or movement of formwork
Max. free fall of concrete may be 1.5m.
![Page 17: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
CONCRETE ADMIXTURES
The dosages of retarders,plasticizers & superplasticizers shall be restricted to 0.5,1.0 and 2.0% respectively,by weight
of cementitious materials,unless a higher
value is agreed upon between the
manufacturer & the constructer based
on performance test.
![Page 18: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
COMPACTION OF CONCRETE
Concrte should be thoroughly compacted.
Each 1% void can reduce the compressive
strength of concrete by 5%.
Over- vibration & under- vibration are harmful and should be avoided.
Fresh concrete should be thoroughly compacted near the construction joints.
![Page 19: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CURING OF CONCRETE
Exposed surfaces of concrete shall be kept
continuously damp or wet condition by ponding or by covering with wet burlap,hessian etc.
For Concrete with blended cement or mineral
admixtures(flyash or ggbs or silica fume),
the curing period should be increased.
![Page 20: Inspection,Good Construction Practices,Workmanship and Codal Provisions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042505/553ff62f5503469c038b4a12/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

A white synthetic fiber mat with a white polyethylene backing that allows proper water content during the concrete curing process is being laid. They are lightweight and reusable.

CURING COMPOUNDS
Curing compounds may be used in case of scarcity of water or for high-
rise structures e.g bridge piers,RCC columns,chimneys and concrete roads. These compounds( wax-based or resin- based) are spray-applied on exposed concrete surfaces,as soon as possible after the concrete has set and when there is no water scene is visible on the surface.

CONCRETE COVER
Concrete cover should be adequate in concrete structures.
Inadequate cover to reinforcements
will result in corrosion of reinforcements.

VACUUM-DEWATERED CONCRETE
(Generally for slabs & floors)• Slump required: 75-100 mm.• Vacuum is applied through porous mats. (filter mat & suction mat)• Applied vacuum is about 0.08MPa.• About 20% of mixing water gets removed.• Process takes about 15 to 20 minutes.• Flyash or any other pozzolana should not be incorporated in the concrete mix.• Usual floating,trowelling,brooming&curing are requred.• Placed concrete bonds well with the old concrete(if any).
