What this resource helps you do

Organize daily or milestone observations by location, trade, evidence and action. Start with the exact inspection purpose and location, document only what the submitted evidence supports, and keep measurements, testing or professional determinations clearly marked for field review.

FIELD WORKFLOW

Use this template

  1. 1

    Record project, area, grid, level, trade and construction stage.

  2. 2

    Identify the approved drawing, specification or submittal when applicable.

  3. 3

    Capture overall assembly, interfaces and close detail before work is concealed.

  4. 4

    Record required dimensions, tests, inspections and professional determinations as separate evidence.

  5. 5

    Assign responsibility, due date, disposition and closeout verification.

DOCUMENTATION EXAMPLE

A finding that stays within the evidence

Asset or area
Building penetration
Visible condition
A visible service penetration appears incompletely sealed at the photographed wall. Assembly rating, approved system and concealed installation were not established.
Recommended action
Identify the rated assembly and approved penetration system, compare the field installation with its listing, complete authorized corrective work and retain closeout evidence.

Make the report easier to review

Use a short finding title, identify the exact location and place the strongest evidence beside the written observation. Explain the recommended next step in practical order: verify, make safe when needed, correct the confirmed condition and retain completion evidence.

Keep sources tied to the finding

Record the jurisdiction, adopted edition, contract, company procedure or customer-supplied requirement that applies. A source link helps the reviewer locate the material; it does not prove that every requirement applies to the photographed condition.

State what the evidence cannot prove

Photo review does not provide engineering design approval, material acceptance, structural certification or replacement for required inspections and testing.

STARTING SOURCES

References for qualified review

Confirm the current edition, jurisdiction and applicability before relying on a requirement.
