148 Civil Engineering Project Management
Fig. 13.1. A well-written inspector’s report
put down the following information:
• where and what type of work was being done that day;
• how many men and what machines were engaged;
• what delays and bad work were experienced and why.
The inspector is given an aide memoire at the top of the form to remind him
of the separate sections of the job needing coverage. The last section permits
the inspector to comment on what he sees, in addition to logging down
delays, etc. This gives the inspector an opportunity to put his comments on
record, thus contributing to the RE’s successful control of the job.
