Cameral assessment of the reliability of construction executive documentation

Executive documentation is an important part of the workflow during the construction of a project, since it reflects the results of assessing the compliance of the work performed with the requirements of current building standards and design solutions. For actual geodetic location sketches, the reliability of these results should be confirmed by a cameral and instrumental assessment. As shown in the article, the existing practice of a cameral assessment of the reliability of geodetic location sketches as part of the executive construction documentation implemented by developer specialists (technical customer) and government construction oversight authorities is not reliable and requires corrective actions. The article proposes an accessible method that allows assessing the reliability of the actual geodetic location sketches of construction design of buildings and structures from a desktop. As a result of evaluating the sketches using the proposed method, a researcher can conclude about their probable falsification and the need for instrumental verification of the actual height deviations of building structures. The article demonstrates the advantages of the developed method. The method will improve the efficiency of the construction control by a customer and government construction oversight authorities, which is an important component of improving the quality assurance system for construction products. The information presented in the article will be useful for specialists from organizations participating in the investment and construction cycle, government construction oversight authorities, as well as students specializing in construction.
