Method of Road Construction

Before pavement construction can be
allowed it is necessary for both the
horizontal and vertical alignment to be joint
inspection and confirmed by the Consultant.

Make sure surveyor is using proper

instrument total station and dumping level.
Also ensure the mark on site is visible and
suitably protected during work construction.

Pavement construction works shall only be

allowed to commence on site upon the
approval and acceptance of the sub-grade
layer.

The Contractor shall counter check again the

alignment and all dipping pegs and confirm
with the Consultant prior to the permanent
work.
