The control of work and control of material by an inspector in roadway construction projects are vital for ensuring quality, safety, and adherence to project specifications. Inspectors play a crucial role in overseeing the construction process, verifying that the work is carried out according to established standards and guidelines. They ensure proper techniques, methods, and materials are used, preventing potential defects or failures.
