Plant and Truck Certification Program

Information for Inspectors & Assistants

 

Qualification Requirements

 

As of January 1, 2009, NRMCA has established the following requirements for persons inspecting concrete production facilities for the NRMCA Certification Program.

 

  1. Obtain a Plant Inspectors Guide and Qualification Package - $100, plus shipping and handling - contact Karen Bean at kbean@nrmca.org.
     

  2. Complete a review of the Guide and answer the review questions provided in the Guide Package on the Answer to Review Questions and Pledge Form (a minimum score of 75% is required). Sign the pledge. Do not return the review questions.
     

  3. Complete the Contact Information Form, including a listing of all states you are licensed.
     

  4. Complete a Statement of Qualifications. A separate form is provided for professional engineers and assistants.
     

  5. Send completed forms 2, 3 and 4 by mail or scanned copies by e-mail to Karen Bean, NRMCA, 900 Spring Street, Silver Spring, MD 20910; or scanned copies by e-mail to: kbean@nrmca.org.
     

After reviewing the forms, NRMCA will notify you of your approval and issue a card documenting your successful approval. The card will include an ID number that should be included on all future submissions of completed inspection checklists.
 

NOTE:  NRMCA will not process any Plant Certification Checklist if an engineer or an engineer’s assistant is not an NRMCA approved inspector.

 

Reapproval Process – May 2011

Due to significant revisions to the Plant Inspector’s Guide all previously approved inspectors are required to purchase a current copy of the Guide dated May 2011.
Previously approved inspectors (engineers and assistants) are required to update their contact information. Download this file and return the completed file to Karen Bean.

To obtain a copy of the current Plant Certification Checklist:
Contact NRMCA's Karen Bean, by email:
kbean@nrmca.org or by phone at 240-485-1168.
 

Use this Payment Information Form to summarize the payment information and return with the completed documents with the request for certification.
 

 

Other Requirements:
 

  • The engineer should be licensed in the state where the plant is located.
     

  • The engineer is permitted to use an assistant under his/her employ to conduct the physical inspection. The assistant shall have completed the qualification. It is not permitted to use an assistant employed by the company if the engineer does not work for the company.
     

  • It is permitted for a licensed engineer employed by the company seeking certification to conduct the inspection.
     

NOTE:  For ready mixed concrete plants furnishing concrete to North Carolina and South Carolina, the state DOTs have a different qualification procedure for inspectors and their assistants. For more information, contact Bill Arent at the Carolinas Ready Mixed Concrete Association (704-717-9199 / arent@crmca.com). CRMCA maintains an approved list for inspections in these states.
