1、Designation: D 4561 96 (Reapproved 2006)Standard Practice forQuality Control Systems for Organizations Producing andApplying Bituminous Paving Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4561; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption

2、 or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice prescribes the general requirements for theestablishment and

3、maintenance of a quality control system fororganizations producing or applying bituminous paving mate-rials, or both, in construction.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to esta

4、blish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D 3666 Specification for Minimum Requirements forAgen-cies Testing and Inspecting Road and Paving Materials3. Significance and Use3.1 This

5、 practice provides a standard by which organiza-tions can provide a uniform quality service in producing andapplying bituminous paving materials in construction. Thepractice outlines and describes the procedures for establishingand maintaining a quality control system.3.2 The control of quality is a

6、 continuing process; conse-quently, this practice provides not only for the formation of aprogram but for its continuation through calibration, standard-ization, and reference sample and inspection programs.3.3 The basic requirements for a quality control systemencompass the following, all of which

7、shall be documented:3.3.1 Quality policy, planning, and administration,3.3.2 Organization,3.3.3 Human resources,3.3.4 Physical resources, and3.3.5 Quality control and evaluation.4. Quality Statement, Planning, and Administration4.1 Quality StatementA quality statement shall describemanagements speci

8、fic intention and policy with respect toquality. This document should specify an organized approachfor carrying out those intentions and should address itself to allmajor quality parameters. It should be approved by the chiefexecutive officer for company-wide policies or by subordinateofficers for s

9、pecialized policies, as applicable. Periodic orga-nizational audits should be conducted to ensure adherence toquality policies.4.2 Quality PlanningPlanning for each new test methodshould define those characteristics to be controlled, in orderthat the services provided comply with its defined require

10、-ments.4.3 AdministrationClear lines of authority shall be estab-lished to administer the quality system.4.3.1 Quality ResponsibilityThe quality responsibility ofeach unit within the organization shall be defined, agreed upon,and documented by the chief operation officer of each unit.4.3.2 Quality P

11、erformance ReportingResponsibility forreporting to higher management performance against statedquality objectives should rest with functions independent ofthose responsible for the attainment of those objectives. Pro-cedures for documentation and record retention should beestablished.4.3.3 Quality A

12、udit SystemsTo provide assurance, a peri-odic audit of the quality system should be made by anorganizational element independent of the unit being audited orby a qualified third party. It may include, as appropriate:4.3.3.1 Management audits to determine how well qualitypolicy and objectives are bei

13、ng met, and4.3.3.2 System audits, including testing process audits, todetermine how well quality planning has been implementedand to identify areas where changes would be beneficial to thequality of services performed.5. Organization5.1 The following information concerning the organizationshall be p
