There was one search on this site; it appeared to be like this “Definition of Checklist and How to build.” Let us give a response for that search by making a post for that alone, it may have been a kind of request.
I am going to give a definition and ways on how to build a checklist and I am going to show also the sample checklist. But first, let me give a definition of Checklist.
Checklist Definition
The checklist is a list of items to be noted or checked in a completed part of the activity. It is always attached with the Inspection Request (IR) to be signed-off by concern parties once the inspection is accepted.
A Checklist shall be made for each activity on site. It is the basis of confirmation that a part of activity has been done as per the method or procedure of the work.
The checklist shall be done after the development of the method statement and Inspection and Test Plan.
Here is a sample of a Checklist for Block Works activity.
