Supervision Check List

Supervision and quality control check list
______________________________________
INTRODUCITON
This checklist for site supervisors is issued in order to ensure a uniform
system of supervision of building construction projects constructed in
the region of those projects budgeted by the government.
As a result to ensure the quality of construction, this checklist used as
guidelines for the supervisors and shows level of responsibilities,
liabilities and limitations of the supervisor are briefly mentioned in the
steps to the general terms.
Details of construction may specify in the drawings, technical
specifications and in the general and special conditions of the contract.
The duty of the site Engineers/Supervisors is to ensure that the
construction works are executed in accordance with the contract
requirement.
Therefore, in the application of this checklist the details specified in the
contract document always precede before the application and use of it.
There are also tables and forms in this checklist that help as records of
the incidences affecting the work and as references. In addition the
standard technical specification is used as reference on the preparation
of this checklist and shall always have precedence over the checklist.

Concrete
Concrete is a composite material consisting essentially of a binding medium
with in which are embedded particles of a relatively inert filler materials.
In cement concrete the binder is cement and the filler material is aggregate
of graded size from sand to pieces of stone of varying diameter and shape.
Property of concrete
Property of fresh concrete
As soon as water is brought in contact with other ingredient of concrete,
freshly mixed concrete gradually under goes changes until it becomes hard.
In its plastic the most important properties are.
Workability
Consistency
Segregation
40
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
_
OWUDB
Bleeding
Workability
Fresh mixed concrete should be easy to be transported, placed. Consolidated
and finished without any segregation. The workability of concrete is affected
by water content, size of aggregate shape of aggregate grading of aggregate
etc.
Consistency
Consistency is closely related to workability. It is a term which describes the
ease with which fresh concrete flows. It is used to indicate degree of
wetness.
Measurement of workability
Among various methods of determining the workability of concrete the most
common method is slump test. It is performed by measuring the subsidence
of a pile of concrete formed in a mould in the shape of a frustum of a cone
with base diameter 20cm and top diameter 10cm and the height is 30cm. A
tamping rod of steel 16mm diameter and 0.60m long is used to compact the
concrete in the mould. The slump which is the subsidence of the concrete
cone after the mould is lifted up and carefully observed gives the following
three results
True slump
Note: -
shear slump
collapsed slump
Concrete with shear or collapse slump is not recommendable

Strength
Permeability
Durability
Elasticity
Shrinkage
Creep
Strength of concrete is the most important property as far structural design is

concerned. Indirectly it gives the idea of most of the other properties such as
water tightness durability, wear resistance etc.
Strength of concrete is measured either in compression strength or tensile
strength. The usual method of compressive strength determination employees
either cubes or cylinder specimen (height equal twice its diameter)
Note: - cylindrical compressive strength is 80% of cube strength
Tensile strength of concrete has low tensile strength, which ranges from 8% to
12 % of its compressive strength. An average value of 10% is generally
accepted.

Concrete is graded in terms of its characteristic compressive cube strength
attained at the age of 28 days in Mpa. For example C25 means characteristics
