• Monitor site activities to ensure proper construction sequencing, compaction practices and layer thickness control.
• Recommend adjustments to construction methodologies when unforeseen conditions arise.
• Verify materials delivered to site meet the specification and approved mix designs.
• Witness field testing such as density tests, moisture content, CBR / DCP, stabilisation QA, asphalt QC, and subgrade verification.
