Precast Concrete Quality Control Checklist

Use this Precast Concrete Quality Control Checklist to inspect mold setup, reinforcement, curing, and finishing to ensure quality standards in buildings.

Precast Concrete Quality Control Checklist



Material Quality And Storage

1. Are cement, aggregates, water, and admixtures tested for compliance before use?

2. Are raw materials stored in clean, dry, and clearly labeled areas to prevent contamination?


Photo Comment

3. Is the reinforcement steel stored off the ground and protected from corrosion?


Photo Comment

4. Are form release agents and curing compounds stored according to manufacturer guidelines?


Photo Comment

5. Are batch records maintained for all incoming materials?

Mix Design And Concrete Batching

1. Is the concrete mix design approved and aligned with structural and durability requirements?


Photo Comment

2. Are batching systems calibrated and maintained regularly?


Photo Comment

3. Is the water-cement ratio monitored and adjusted based on aggregate moisture content?


Photo Comment

4. Is the slump, temperature, and air content tested and recorded for every batch?


Photo Comment

5. Are mix adjustments documented with reasons and approvals?

Formwork And Reinforcement Preparation

1. Are formworks clean, undamaged, and set to the correct dimensions and alignment?


Photo Comment

2. Is reinforcement cut, bent, and placed per design drawings and spacing requirements?


Photo Comment

3. Are rebar overlaps, clear cover, and tie methods in compliance with design standards?


Photo Comment

4. Are embedded items like lifting anchors, ducts, and inserts placed as per layout drawings?


Photo Comment

5. Is pre-pour inspection completed and documented before casting?


Photo Comment
Casting And Finishing

1. Is concrete poured evenly and vibrated thoroughly to eliminate air pockets?


Photo Comment

2. Is form oil applied correctly to ensure smooth demolding?


Photo Comment

3. Are surfaces finished as specified (e.g., troweled, brushed, or formed)?


Photo Comment

4. Are lifting hooks or embeds cleaned and free from obstructions before setting?


Photo Comment

5. Are demolding times followed per temperature and curing conditions?


Photo Comment
Curing And Strength Monitoring

1. Are curing methods (e.g., water spray, curing blankets, membranes) appropriate for weather conditions?


Photo Comment

2. Is temperature and humidity controlled during early strength development?


Photo Comment

3. Are curing durations monitored and adjusted to meet strength requirements?


Photo Comment

4. Are compressive strength samples taken and tested at required intervals (e.g., 7 and 28 days)?


Photo Comment

5. Are low-strength results flagged and investigated with non-conformance reports?


Photo Comment
Inspection And Dimensional Tolerances

1. Are finished precast units inspected for surface defects, honeycombing, or cracks?


Photo Comment

2. Are dimensional tolerances (length, width, depth, warping) checked against design specs?


Photo Comment

3. Are reinforcement location and concrete cover verified using NDT if necessary?


Photo Comment

4. Are embedded items inspected for alignment and firmness after casting?


Photo Comment

5. Is labeling of units done clearly, indicating type, location, and date of casting?


Photo Comment
Storage, Handling, And Transportation

1. Are precast components stored on level ground with proper supports to avoid warping?


Photo Comment

2. Are lifting anchors inspected before handling or shipment?


Photo Comment

3. Are handling procedures documented to prevent chipping or cracking during movement?


Photo Comment

4. Is transport equipment adequate for the weight and size of units?


Photo Comment

5. Are delivery records maintained and site inspection completed upon arrival?
