3.5 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL, INSPECTION, AND TESTING
A. The Applicator shall perform the quality control procedures below in conjunction with the requirements of this Section.
B. Inspect materials upon receipt to confirm they are supplied by the approved manufacturer.
C. Surface Profile: Inspect and record substrate profile (anchor pattern).

G. Dry-film thickness shall be determined using a surface-area coverage calculation for material consumption, per system as scheduled.
H. The Applicator is responsible for keeping Architect informed of progress so Architect may provide additional quality control oversight at its discretion; inspection by Architect or others does not relieve the Applicator of responsibility for quality control inspection and testing specified herein or required by the manufacturer.
I. Material Sampling: Owner may, at any time and any number of times during application, require material samples for compliance testing. Owner will engage an independent testing agency to sample, identify, seal, and certify materials in the presence of Contractor.
