Title
Standard Practice for Quality Assurance Observation of Roof Construction and Repair
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jul 1, 2005
Scope:
This practice covers procedures for performing visual monitoring of
roofing construction to:
Establish guidelines for quality assurance observation practices; and
Define the role and responsibilities of the quality assurance
observer.
This practice pertains to daily, full-time, quality assurance
observation of roofing projects. This
practice is applicable to new construction or reroofing projects
involving the installation of a
new roof system, the removal of existing roofing and installation of a
new roof system, or
recovering an existing roof. It is also applicable to roofing projects
involving repairs or
scheduled maintenance to an existing roof.
This practice contains the following information:
The objectives of the quality assurance process;
The responsibilities and qualifications of the individual(s) involved
in the observations of the
roof construction or repair;
Identification and use of the basic tools or equipment required for
the visual roof observation
process; and
Monitoring, recording, and reporting procedures.
This practice does not address practices of roof investigation,
condition reporting, or analysis of
preexisting roofs.
This practice does not pertain to quality control processes or
techniques performed by persons or
entities representing or under contract to the roofing contractor. The
quality control process is
separate and distinct from the quality assurance observation process.
Assessment of safe work practices or safety monitoring procedures
followed by the contractor are
outside the scope of this practice.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
