Plan HiBar thickness inspections before work starts

By Industry Army Marketing (IAM) · September 28, 2026

Inspection arrangements should be agreed before the treated surfaces become difficult to access. The design and accepted system documents establish the requirements; an article cannot prescribe a universal application thickness.

Identify the governing requirements

Ask the project designer to connect each building element to the applicable system details. Resolve inconsistent drawings and schedules before application. Keep the accepted requirements available to both the installer and inspector.

Coordinate inspection access

Arrange the inspection sequence with the contractor and qualified reviewer. Identify hold points, access equipment and areas that later trades will conceal. The inspection plan should make room for corrections and any required follow-up review.

Retain traceable results

Ask for records tied to floors, grids or room references. Keep findings and correction records together. Do not treat a broad photograph or an unlocated measurement as a complete record of the installed scope.

Keep with your project brief
