Sort out the objects and steps of inspection so that the contractor can provide direct assistance and enough information. 大多数工程项目涉及很多施工程序和不同的施工工地，因此，为了实施工程监督, 保证工程质量，工地上有很多项目需要检查，例如临时设施（浇筑）模板加固工程混凝土工程钢结构工程管道和电气工程屋顶和防水处理工程终饰工程安全管理工作等等。检查员要分类整理好被检查的对象，明确检查的各个步骤，以便承包商能够提供直接的帮助和足够的信息。Sche

Undoubtedly, the contractor will be willing to provide those comparatively more sophisticated devices on the site when asked to.这听起来似乎很简单，但是装备这些必要的测试设备，可以在你需要寻求帮助时避免不必要

10、的麻烦。要配备哪些装置取决于不同的检查对象。但是无论在哪里检查以及检查什么，卷尺都是必须的。虽然它很容易携带，但它可以在检查钢筋，木匠工作和其他简单工作中会产生奇效。当要进行更精确的测试时，应采用全站仪、经纬仪或水平仪。毫无疑问，当被要求时，承包商愿意在现场提供那些相对比较精密的设备。Observe safety regulations on worksite 遵守工地安全规章制度The safety regulations on the engineering worksite should be strictly observed by all the engineers and work

It is not necessary to

15、 beat round the bush but to cut to the chase.一旦承包商确定了项目负责人，在检查期间，应与他保持全面联系。没必要说话时拐弯抹角兜圈子，而是要开门见山直入正题。Be straightforward to the lead person when asking for design drawings, construction records, testing reports, and other documents not involving confidential information.需要看设计图纸、施工记录、测试报告和其它未涉及机密信息的文件

And the capital funds, management, personnel, temporary facilities, construction procedures and crafts, safety regulations

24、 and so on can also shed a light on the contractors reputation and strength.检查的次数也取决于承包商的声誉，这也是要检查的目标之一。信誉越好，需要检查的次数就越少。人们可以从承包商已竣工项目和在建项目中看出他们的声誉。而且资本资金、管理、施工人员、临时设施、施工程序和工艺、安全规章制度等等也能够体现（或显示）出承包商的声誉和实力。No doubt, the above tips are far from comprehensive for each specific inspection, which may vary

25、 greatly under different circumstances. But they can be general guidelines for the young inspectors.毫无疑问，以上建议对于每种具体的检查工作来说远远不够全面，它可能会随不同的情况变化很大。但对于年轻的检查员们来说，上述建议可以作为通用指南使用。U11 Section C Organization of Safety Work（P74）Generally, at the very beginning of a project, a suitably qualified and experience
