CQA Solutions Ltd services

Simply put, the field technician is the eyes and ears of the certifying engineer and can make or break a project, possibly leading to catastrophic conditions in the future. To perform field testing at an acceptable level, the technician must understand the principals behind the tests, the intent of the design, the material characteristics, and be able to discern when the test numbers are not geotechnical-1representative of the actual conditions they are observing in the field.

Although geosynthetics can be installed without third party CQA, the quality of the final product is documented to greatly increase when a third party CQA is present. This is particularly important when dealing with the geomembrane liners, which are typically installed as an impermeable barrier to keep components contained.

Leak Integrity: Studies show that nearly 75 percent of the damage found in geomembrane systems happens when the drainage/protective layer is placed over top of the geomembrane, not during geomembrane construction.

Turn to CQA Solutions` consulting services to maximize your ROI. Get the most out of your CQA Plan (or completely overhaul it!). Avoid costly delays during the construction season by addressing issues from the start. Gain improved understanding and utilization of the CQA role.

Legendary football coach Vince Lombardi said, “Leaders are made, they are not born!” He was right; the process of leadership requires guided knowledge and experience. “One on One” mentoring. Customized training develops the student’s abilities to be pro-active, recognize potential problems before they happen, and manage CQA crews.. Typically, the training lasts 3-5 days with 1-2 in a classroom environment and 3-4 days spent in the field on an actual project. Watch your bottom line increase as lead technicians take on more responsibilities, freeing up engineering staff to handle more projects. Requirements: minimum of two-seasons of CQA experience in the areas for which they will be trained (earthwork or geosynthetics).
