Binder Course Inspection Checklist

by Graeme Higgin, from the Community

This binder course inspection checklist supports road and highway projects to meet Highway S4 requirements. It guides inspectors through surface preparation and cleanliness, tack coat application and dryness, specified material depths, and DBM material specifications. Record ambient and ground temperatures, wind considerations, and per-wagon asphalt temperatures from arrival to pre-rolling. Select the appropriate bitumen paving grade and complete quality testing including rolling and 3 metre straight edge checks, grip testing, PQI, sand patch tests, and white lining verification. Includes certification items and partial completion Schedule 1 covering earthworks, drainage, kerbs, sub base, base and binder courses for carriageways, pedestrian and cycle ways, visibility splays, street lighting, and temporary street name plates.

Surface Coat Carriageway Checklist
This Surface Coat Carriageway checklist supports Highway S4 inspections for road surfacing works. Verify site preparation, cleaning and tack coat, confirm laying depth (e.g., 40mm or 60mm), and record ambient and ground temperatures with wind considerations. Capture wagon delivery temperatures, material specifications (SMA/DBM) and bitumen grades. Check compliance via rolling and 3-metre straight edge, grip testing, PQI and sand patch tests, plus white lining completion. Use certification sections and Schedules 1 and 2 to track completion items, as-built drawings, and Road Safety Audit 3 requirements.

Roadbase Inspection Checklist
This roadbase inspection checklist supports highway S4 works and civil road construction. Record project details, subcontractors, and inspector. Verify subgrade and subbase thickness by CBR and confirm geotextile requirements. Check kerb race and gullies, specify material depths, and capture site and wagon temperatures. Select DBM material sizes and bitumen paving grades. Log rolling straight edge and 3 metre straight edge results, roller type, and overall compliance to ensure quality carriageway surfacing.

In-Process Control Check List
This in-process control checklist supports quality assurance for asphalt paving and road construction. It guides forepersons through pre-commencement checks (surface condition, set levels, existing levels, weather and air temperatures, site dilapidations, and plant readiness for roller, bobcat, and paver). During works, it covers material verification, ticket logging, delivery and laying temperatures, level control by layer, and binder/tack coat application. On completion, it prompts final surface inspections, level and falls checks (including flood testing), housekeeping and damage checks, plant clean-down and servicing, and documentation. Signature fields, comments, non-conformance reporting, and additional works sections are included to ensure traceability and compliance.

Backfill for Reinstatement Quality Checklist
This practical checklist supports crews performing trench backfill and surface reinstatement to required quality standards. It covers site details and team roles, PPE and housekeeping, weather, and surface type selection for carriageway or footway works. Items include road category, binder and surface layer depths, chip color, and tack coat application. It prompts checks on excavation faces and depth, evidence of Clegg testing, and confirmation that reinstatement matches existing surface materials. Hotbox controls include temperatures for surface and binder courses and the method used to measure them. Safety and readiness checks span tool cleaning, securing gas bottles, availability of the correct fire extinguisher, and presence of a spill kit. Final compliance items verify line markings and anti-skid replacement, proper cutbacks, and that utilities boxes and cabinets meet standards.
