Plan & Audit :

This is the basic document to achieve

the Quality assurance conceived.
Audit to help improve assurance
Vendor wise
Quality Plan
Documentation :

Documentation is required in the

Quality Plan
not only for record but also for
analysis, correction
and future guidance.
Quality Plan

Sampling :
The no. of samples required to assess
the quality of the product should be
stipulated as per standard practices
and codal requirements.
Quality Plan

Mockups :
Mockups are required to visualize
the final product and make
corrections if necessary so that
required Quality is achieved
in the final product.
Quality Plan
Analysis :
The results of various tests are not
meant to be stored in shelves.
They are the most important guide
for assessment of Quality,
correction where necessary
and a guide for the future.
Quality Plan
Feed Back :
Feed back from the project site is an
important input
for ensuring that the required Quality
standards are
actually achieved in the work.
Quality Plan
Acceptance :
It is the acceptance of Quality to the
Grade of the facility
which is planned at the concept level.
Quality Plan
Rectification :

Practically all projects will need

rectification of defects which are
bound to crop up in any project.
Quality should cover this aspect
and lay down rectification process
for commonly occurring defects.

CRISIL
 CONSTRUCTION QUALITY
ASSESSMENT
SYSTEM / Rating
The Construction Quality
Assessment System or CONQUAS
was developed by the Building and
Construction Authority (BCA)
Singapore in conjunction with the
major public sector agencies and
the various leading industry
professional bodies to measure the
quality level achieved in a
completed project.
CONQUAS was designed with
three objectives:

(a)To have a standard quality assessment system for

construction projects.

(b) To make quality assessment objective by:

- measuring constructed works against
workmanship
Standards and specification.
- using a sampling approach to suitably represent
the whole
project.

(c) To enable quality assessment to be carried out

systematically within
reasonable cost and time.
CONQUAS sets out the standards for the
various aspects of construction work
and awards points for works that meet the
standards. These points are then
summed up to give a total quality score called
the CONQUAS Score for the
building project.

CONQUAS 21 covers most aspects of the

general building works. The
assessment consists of three components:

(1) Structural Works,

(2) Architectural Works and
(3) *Mechanical & Electrical (M&E) Works.
*M&E Works has replaced the External Works
component in the previous edition of CONQUAS. The
latter is now reduced
in weightage and incorporated under Architectural
Works for condominiums and public housing.

The building is assessed primarily on workmanship

standards achieved through site inspection. The
assessment is done throughout the construction
process for Structural and M&E Works and on the
completed building for Architectural Works.

The minimum standards were derived from discussions

with the major public sector agencies, developers,
consultants and contractors based on the general
specifications used in their projects.
The Weightages
In CONQUAS 21, the weightages for
Structural, Architectural and M&E works are
allocated according to four categories of
buildings as follows:
The CONQUAS score of a building is the sum of
points awarded to the three components in each
category of buildings.

The scoring will be done on the works that are

inspected for the first time. Rectification and
correction carried out after the assessment will
not be rescored. The objective of this practice is
to encourage contractors "doing things right the
first time".
ConQAS SCORE
(A)Structural Works Assessment

The structural integrity of the building is of paramount

importance as the costs of failure and repairs are very
significant. The assessment of Structural Works comprises:
(i) Site inspection of formwork, steel reinforcement and
finished concrete during construction. The
assessment shall include structural steel and pre-
stressed concrete if each constitutes more than 20% of
the total structural cost.
(ii) Laboratory testing of compressive strength of concrete
and tensile strength of steel reinforcement.
(iii) Non-destructive testing of the uniformity and the cover of
hardened concrete.

The assessment for Structural Work will be carried out for every
building block as the construction proceeds. A sample in
structural work can be a beam, a column, a wall or a slab. The
assessment of a reinforced concrete structure consists of the
following items:
The distribution of points for Structural
Steelwork and Pre-stressed Concrete are as
follows:
The distribution of points for Structural
Steelwork and Pre-stressed Concrete are as
follows:
(B)Architectural Works Assessment
Assessment of Architectural works is carried out upon
completion of the building and before handing over of the project
to the owner. The assessment consists of the following items:
A location for internal finishes assessment is a
functional space of a building such as a room, hall,
toilet, kitchen, corridor or lobby. Locations are further
categorised into three types:

Principal locations are major functional places such

as halls and rooms.
Circulation locations include lift lobbies, corridors
and staircases.
Service locations are utility areas such as toilets,
kitchens and balconies.

The computed number of locations will be distributed

according to "Principal", "Circulation" and "Service"
based on the percentages set out in the four
categories of buildings as below:
(C ) M&E Works Assessment

The M&E Works assessment will be carried out in two

stages: during the construction of structural works
and upon completion of the building. The assessment
covers the following areas, with their weightages
allocated in accordance with the four categories of
projects:
