STANDARD INSPECTION & TEST PLAN (I T P ) FOR SAND PAD

GENERAL NOTES:

Inspection and Test Plan(ITP) given herein is indicative only. The
provisions indicated herein for stage wise inspection are minimum and
the Engineer-in-Charge may decide to increase the Hold Point / Witness
Point. Contractor has to prepare ITPs for any of the activities not covered
herein, submit the same to HPCL and obtain their approval.

Contractor to prepare required reporting formats and job procedures for
each activity i.e. Setting out of work, levels grid co-ordinate wise,
submission of Sand samples meeting tender specifications along with soil
lab. test report, watering, OMC, Rolling , carting away earth etc to HPCL
for approval well in advance prior to commencement of activity. Any
deviation to ITP shall be subjected to HPCLs written approval. Contractor
to carry out 100% examination of all activities and proper records shall be
maintained and made available to HPCL Officers requirement at any
time of inspection during the contract period.

A point which requires inspection/verification and acceptance by HPCL
or HPCL nominated consultant like NABL approved lab/ Jadavpur
University before any further processing is permitted.
The contractor shall not process the activity/item beyond the Hold Point
without written approval from Engineer-in-Charge.

2.2 W : Witness Point

An Activity which requires witness by HPCL when activity is performed.
2.3 RW : Review of Contractors Documentation

2.4 S : Surveillance Inspection by HPCL

Monitoring of observations to verify whether or not
materials/items/services confirms to specified requirement. Surveillance
