Inspection & Testing Plan For Aggregates

This inspection and testing plan outlines the parameters, standards, specification limits, frequencies, and responsibilities for testing aggregates to be used in construction projects. It provides details on testing fine aggregates, coarse aggregates, and combined aggregate gradation for base courses and wearing courses. Parameters include plasticity index, sand equivalent value, soundness, chloride and sulfate content, aggregate crushing value, Los Angeles abrasion, and sieve analysis. Testing will be done on each aggregate source by the internal project lab (INF AP LAB) and may also be sent to an external testing provider (TPL). The plan was prepared by the QA/QC inspector, reviewed by the QA/QC manager, and approved by the QA/QC manager.
