    Construction quality control is important for three key reasons: 1) It ensures a project is built according to specifications to deliver a quality product for the client. 2) It reduces costs by lowering waste, rework, and need for repairs. 3) It improves safety on construction sites by enforcing safety measures planned in the design. Quality control should be a priority throughout the entire project lifecycle from design to completion to avoid defects and ensure project success.

    The key takeaways are that construction quality control ensures a successful project by minimizing defects and complying with specifications, reducing costs, and avoiding accidents on construction sites.

    The three reasons are to comply with specifications, reduce costs, and avoid accidents on construction sites.

    Construction quality control helps to reduce construction costs by lowering levels of waste and rework, cutting costs and improving productivity and production efficiency.

    CONSTRUCTION QUALITY

    CONTROL: 3 Reasons Why Quality


    Control is Important for a
    Successful Construction Project
    What is your view about quality when it comes to constructing or maintaining your
    building?

    Construction projects are always expected to create a balance between cost, time and
    quality. High quality is not always the primary objective for most clients; however, it is
    extremely important to a successful project.

    Any project with a good construction quality control ensures minimal defects and is
    more likely to have a successful construction project. This creates a great potential for
    quality improvements in construction projects, as not paying adequate attention to
    construction quality control could negatively impact the project.

    In this post, we will be discussing 3 reasons why construction quality control is important
    to every construction project.

    But, before that, let’s understand what construction quality control is all about

    What is Construction Quality Control?


    The word quality has different meaning to the context it is applied. According to Noel
    Mades, quality in construction means the measure of excellence or a state of being free
    from defects, deficiencies, and significant variations, brought about by the strict and
    consistent adherence to measurable and verifiable standards to achieve uniformity of
    output that satisfies specific customer or user requirements.

    Therefore, quality control consists of making sure things are done according to the
    plans, specifications, and permit requirements during construction project. In fact,
    quality control makes it imperative for clients to get the most out of their construction
    projects.

    Why Construction Quality Control is Important for a


    Successful Construction Project
    Below are reasons why construction quality control makes it imperative for clients get
    the most out of their construction projects.

    To Comply with Specifications


    Construction quality control help to construct the project in accordance with the
    construction drawings and design details while also delivering to the client a project that
    meets and exceeds their standards and specifications.

    As with cost control, the most important decisions regarding the quality of a completed
    facility are made during the design and planning stages rather than during construction.
    It is during these preliminary stages that component configurations, material
    specifications and functional performance are decided.

    Quality control during construction consists largely of insuring conformance to these


    original design and planning decisions.

    To Reduce Costs
    Defects or failures in constructed facilities can result in very large costs. Even with
    minor defects, re-construction may be required and facility operations impaired.
    Construction quality control can help to reduce construction costs by lowering levels of
    waste and rework, cutting costs and improving productivity and production efficiency.

    To Avoid Accidents on Construction Sites


    Safety during the construction project is also influenced in large part by decisions made
    during the planning and design process. This is one of the benefits of construction
    quality control. For example, clear separation of traffic from construction zones during
    roadway rehabilitation can greatly reduce the possibility of accidental collisions.

    Conclusion
    Quality control is critically important to a successful construction project and should be
    adhered to throughout a project from conception and design to construction and
    installation. Inspection during construction will prevent costly repairs after the project is
    completed.

    By suggesting new work methods, by avoiding rework, and by avoiding long term
    problems, good construction quality control can pay for itself. Owners should promote
    good construction quality control and seek out contractors who maintain such
    standards.
