Concrete Pre-Pour Inspection Checklist
This concrete pre-pour inspection checklist helps teams confirm readiness before placing concrete. Review current drawings and approved mix design, then verify reinforcement is clean, correctly positioned, tied, covered, and lapped to specification. Check formwork and falsework for line and level, joint details and waterstops, built-in items and penetrations, and ensure the correct form release agent is on hand. Confirm temporary works approvals and permits, site cleanliness, and pour safety. Capture inspection times, foreman and engineer sign-off, and clearance for concreting to reduce rework and ensure a compliant finish.
