point of segregation and tapping or external vibration of forms
17 by hand tools or immersion vibrator not be permitted?

21 the work between predetermined construction joints?
     
Are the joint at right angles to the axis of the member for
22 inclined or curved members?      
Is the construction joint surface roughened, thoroughly
23 cleaned, and treated with a thin layer of cement group before
resuming concreting?      
Did each placement of concrete in multiple lift work except
when placing with slip forms allowed to set for at least 24
24 hours before the start of subsequent placements?

D
s
S Description Yes No
N  
The masonry used for structural works are random masonry
1 or coursed rubble masonry ?
