Study Guide with Complete Solutions
What are the three fundamental objectives of a quality management plan? -
Answer✔️✔️-Do things the right the first time, prevent things from going
wrong in the first place, continually improve the construction process.
What is the difference between quality control and quality assurance? -
Answer✔️✔️-Control addresses quality at the project level and deals with
conformance to the plans and specs through submittals, shop drawings,
inspections, testing. Assurance addresses quality at the process level and
deals with policies and procedures associated with hiring, training, safety,
subcontracting, procurement.
Name three quality control mechanisms typically mandated by the
construction contract that are used to check for conformance to the plans
and specifications. - Answer✔️✔️-Submittals, mock-ups, shop drawings.
Explain the concept behind a zero-punch list. - Answer✔️✔️-Complete the
final walk-through inspection with few or no punch items noted on the list.
The idea is to inspect and correct the work as it progresses instead of
waiting until it is completed, only to find that the quality is unacceptable.
