The process of inspecting and testing work to catch defects and ensure it meets specifications.
Quality control (QC) is the operational process of verifying that construction work meets specified requirements through inspection, testing, and review. QC is reactive, catching defects and non-conforming work after it occurs so corrections can be made. QC activities include materials testing, in-progress inspections, mock-up reviews, and punch list completion.
