Pour and cylinder records, assembled by placement for the project manager who submits them.

The paper for a single elevated deck can sit in four places at once: delivery tickets with the superintendent, pre-pour sign-offs in a shared folder, break reports in somebody's inbox and a flatness report attached to a thread with the general contractor. Your project manager sorts all of it by placement, works out what that job's specification asked for, and chases whatever isn't there.

In the test, AI reads copies of those records and assembles them by pour: the delivery tickets for that placement, the pre-pour sign-offs, each cylinder break report, the floor flatness report where the specification calls for one, and a list of the records missing. It judges no result and submits nothing. Your reviewer compares each set with the one your team actually sent.

A ticket has to reach a place in the building. Old Dominion University's standards and New York's state master specification both ask for a batch ticket showing project name and number, date, mix type, mix time, quantity and water added, then say to record the approximate location of final deposit in the structure. The City of Madison's section for the Warner Park community center wants each test report to carry truck and batch ticket numbers and the location in the work the samples represent, and each ticket to state mix identification, admixtures, design strength, aggregate size, design air and slump, and the water that may be added at the site. Ticket to location and ticket to cylinder set are the two links that let a file hold together by placement.

What counts as missing depends on that project's sampling rule. Wisconsin's state master specification, dated April 14, 2025, samples each class of concrete at least once a day, once per 150 cubic yards, or once per 5,000 square feet of slab or wall. Massillon City Schools' Westside PK-3 section samples each day's pour of each mixture over 5 cubic yards and under 25, plus one set for each additional 50 yards. The University of Maryland takes two 6-by-12 or three 4-by-8 laboratory-cured cylinders at 28 days for acceptance, and Massillon also calls for three-cylinder lab-cured and field-cured sets at seven days and two-cylinder sets at 28. The draft counts what that project's own documents say should exist, then lists what it can't find.

Two kinds of cylinder answer two different questions. Maryland's standard says field-cured cylinders are not for strength acceptance and can instead support early form removal, if the structural engineer approves, or an early end to moisture curing. Powhatan County, Virginia's statement of special inspections lists field-cured tests before stressing or stripping on a separate line from laboratory-cured strength tests, and it requires a final report of special inspections before final building inspection approval. New York City's Bulletin 2009-026 caps initial curing at 48 hours, and cylinders staying on site longer go into final curing there. The set keeps those reports apart, so nobody reads a stripping break as an acceptance break.

Sign-offs and forms change with the owner and the city. Massillon wants formwork, reinforcement, embedded items and vapor retarder confirmed and inspections done before placing, with 24 hours' notice to the architect and testing agencies. Old Dominion uses an inspection request form at least 24 hours ahead. A September 2010 specification in the City of Portland, Maine's permit files calls for 48 hours' notice to the special inspector and approval or waiver before placement. New York City's bulletin stops concrete work if the laboratory on site doesn't match the TR2 filing, and the TR2's test report section runs cylinder ID, slump, air, temperature, unit weight, placement location, total yards and break strength, with original lab reports attached before sign-off. California's Division of the State Architect lists a concrete placement record in its project inspector job file review, and its inspection card manual says test reports have no required format.

Flatness reports arrive on their own clock. Massillon wants floor flatness and levelness measured under ASTM E1155 within 72 hours of finishing, while Wisconsin leaves a blank for 24, 48 or 72 hours and each project fills it in. Wisconsin also limits levelness tolerances to non-sloping slabs on ground and slabs still shored at testing, and defines local test areas by joints on grade and by column and wall lines on elevated slabs. The set shows the report, its date and the areas it covers. What your reviewer will check is whether each set has the right tickets, breaks and sign-offs for that pour and names the real gaps. Whether any result passes stays with the testing agency, the special inspector and the engineer of record, and nothing here is legal or engineering advice.

Once your reviewer says yes, the same job runs on new pours for about 30 days.

A project manager submits every record after reading the set, and the lab and the inspector keep reporting as they do today.

The live job's price is fixed before you sign, and the next job is its own decision, priced on its own, with monthly support after that.
