Material Verification

• 1. Check the material specification of lifting anchors to ensure they match project requirements.
• 2. Verify the corrosion resistance of anchors and plates, especially in coastal or industrial environments.
• 3. Inspect embedded plates for any signs of rust or damage before installation.
• 4. Confirm that all anchors and plates have the required certification and documentation.

Installation Checks

• 5. Ensure lifting anchors are correctly positioned according to engineering drawings.
• 6. Verify the alignment of embedded plates using a laser level for precision.
• 7. Check that the spacing between anchors meets the specified requirements.
• 8. Assess the depth of embedded plates to confirm they are flush with the concrete surface.

Safety Compliance

• 9. Review the installation for compliance with local building codes and safety standards.
• 10. Ensure all installation personnel are equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
• 11. Confirm that safety barriers and warning signs are in place around the installation area.
• 12. Verify the load capacities of anchors to ensure they are not exceeded.

Documentation and Reporting

• 13. Document all inspection findings with photographic evidence where necessary.
• 14. Compile a report of inspection results, noting any discrepancies or issues found.
• 15. Ensure all reports are signed off by the responsible inspector and stored for future reference.
