The second phase is defined as the “Project Execution”
phase. This phase generally involves Designer verification of
system components, area of component placement,
component elevation, quality of materials and system
hydraulic performance. Verification of cover soil depth,
landscaping and finished drainage characteristics are the
final function of this process and can be one of the most
important considerations of this phase.
The third phase of construction management is defined as
the “Final Inspection” phase. During this phase the
Designer makes the final determination of how well the
design and the installation match. The amount and value of
variations in the installation from the approved plan and
how that might influence or modify the overall function and
performance of the system is evaluated. A final report
detailing those changes, if determined to be significant, is
generated by the Designer and passed on to the appropriate
parties.
The following are typical tasks a design professional will
consider when performing construction management:
Preparation
• Conduct on-site pre-construction conference
• Assess changes in conditions (e.g., soil, topography,
vegetation) that may have occurred since design work
was completed
• Modify design components, if appropriate
Project Execution
• Verify designed treatment components and materials
(e.g., tanks, ATU’s, floats, filter, etc.)
• Verify designed disposal site preparation (e.g., location,
orientation, elevations, soil,)
• Verify designed component construction and materials
(e.g., drain rock, squirt height, etc.)
