DOTQS Engineers and Technicians have supported the engineering offices of DOTs and Agencies with short investigative projects and standard work items.

Standard work items can range from the review of shop/manufacturing drawings from a prestressed concrete plant or a steel fabrication facility. DOTQS engineers and technicians have provided solid and quick turnaround reviews of welding procedure specifications (WPSs) and the procedure qualification records (PQRs) that support them.

Investigative items might be reviewing a request from a contractor or subcontractor to substitute a method or product that is not preapproved by agency specifications.
