This Standard and Commentary provide requirements of a quality control program in the manufacture of glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) products. The recommendations for production have been proven to result in quality products. The Standard portion is intended to serve as a specification reference document. The Commentary provides amplification and explanation of the Standard, and also provides production information to assist a manufacturer. The Standard and Commentary are presented in a side-by-side column format. This Manual is divided into three parts. Part A contains Divisions I through V which form the basis for PCI Plant Certification in product Group A2 - GFRC MANUAL FOR quality control for plants and production of GFRC (cont.) products. These divisions are: I) Quality Control Philosophy, II) Product Control, III) Plant Facilities, IV) Materials, and V) Production. It is conformance to these Standards that are audited during each plant inspection and provide the criteria for evaluation of the plant's capabilities. Part B of this Manual includes Division VI- Transportation and Erection. The final part-Appendices-contains summaries of useful information for both the manufacturer and specifier. The architect/ engineer is directed to Appendix A for a list of responsibilities that should to be considered in the preparation of plans and specifications for a project with glass fiber reinforced concrete products.
