FIELD QUALITY CONTROL
3.3.1
Post-Erection Inspection
After erection, the Contractor and the Contracting Officer shall jointly
inspect the monorail and hoist systems and components to determine

**************************************************************************
NOTE: Determine if Government test loads are
available. If not, test loads must be provided by
the Contractor.
**************************************************************************
After erection and inspection, test the hoist, and trolley as specified
herein. Test the systems in service to determine that each component of
the system operates as specified, is properly installed and adjusted, and
is free from defects in material, manufacturer, installation, and
workmanship. Rectify all deficiencies disclosed by testing and retest the

Test Data
Record test data on appropriate test record forms suitable for retention
for the life of the monorail system. Record operating and startup current
measurements for electrical equipment (motors and coils) using appropriate
instrumentation (i.e., clamp-on ammeters). Compare recorded values with
design specifications or manufacturer's recommended values; abnormal
differences (i.e., greater than 10 percent from manufacturer's or design
values) shall be justified or appropriate adjustments performed. In
