Visual Inspection

Visual inspection is a fundamental assessment method that relies on the human eye and optical instruments
We examine the physical appearance and condition of materials, components, or structures. It is a crucial step in evaluating the integrity and quality of welds, surfaces, and other elements. Our visual inspectors look for defects, anomalies, or signs of wear and tear to ensure that the inspected items meet the required standards and safety regulations.

ITP

Inspection Test plan

An Inspection Test Plan (ITP) is a vital document outlining the inspection, material testing, and surveys for contractor submission and Engineer approval before site work begins. It's prepared in advance and includes a comprehensive checklist. The ITP, issued by the Quality Engineer, undergoes reviews by the Quality Manager and Construction Manager before final approval by the Project Manager. A register of ITPs, including checklists, is maintained by the QA/QC Engineer to ensure compliance with inspection criteria for each item.
