About this ITP: ITP defining inspections for mirror walls: substrate checks, services scans, J-channel, adhesive application, joint/optical checks, curing, and handover records.

More than a static template

Unlike a downloadable Word or PDF template, this ITP is an AI-assisted editable starting point directly connected to its method statement. Every inspection activity, hold point, and acceptance criterion is structured and ready to adapt to your project.

  • AI-assisted customization — Tailor inspection activities and acceptance criteria to your specific project scope.
  • Linked method statement — This ITP is connected to the corresponding method statement describing the work sequence.
  • Multiple export formats — Download as a formatted PDF or editable Excel spreadsheet.
  • Editable starting point, not a final document — Review and verify all content against your project specifications and standards before use.

What you can customize

When you save this ITP to your account, every inspection row becomes editable. You can add, remove, or modify:

  • Inspection activity — Description of what is being inspected.
  • Inspection type — Hold point (H), Witness point (W), Review (R), or Monitor (M).
  • Responsibility — Contractor, subcontractor, engineer, or client.
  • Frequency — How often the inspection occurs.
  • Acceptance criteria — Referenced standard or specification requirement.
  • Records — Forms, test reports, or checklists required as evidence.

Why this ITP is used

To verify that each stage of mirror installation meets safety, quality, and optical performance requirements before proceeding.

Who uses this inspection and test plan

QA/QC engineers, site engineers, glazing supervisors, and third-party inspectors.

When this ITP is prepared and submitted

From pre-install surveys through final handover, with defined hold and witness points.

Who receives or approves this ITP

Client/Consultant/Authority Having Jurisdiction (as required).

Inspection scope

Substrate readiness, service scans/permits, J-channel fixings, adhesive type/pattern, joint uniformity, visual/optical quality, curing, sealing, and completion.

Typical hold, witness, and review points

Permit-to-drill (Hold); Adhesive application first-of-type (Hold); Film application and optical check (Witness); Final handover (Witness).

Typical inspection records

Survey logs, moisture readings, adhesive/film/sealant batch records, equipment certificates, lift checklists, photos, ITP forms, warranties, and sign-off sheets.

Important approval note

This ITP is an AI-assisted editable starting point, not a pre-approved document. Before use on any project, all inspection activities, hold points, and acceptance criteria must be reviewed and approved by the relevant parties (superintendent, principal contractor, or client representative) in accordance with your contract and project quality plan.

Always verify acceptance criteria against your applicable drawings, specifications, and regulatory requirements. Hold points must be confirmed with the relevant authority before work proceeds past that point.

Frequently asked questions

Key irreversible steps such as permit-to-drill and first-of-type adhesive comb application are hold points requiring approval before proceeding.

By BS EN 1036 visual inspection at set lighting and a reflected line/grid assessment, recorded with photos and a checklist.

Only if specified in the contract or by the authority. Where required, they should witness hold/witness points and issue reports.
