Abstract:All Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) pavement projects are accepted in accordance with
one or more construction specifications. The purposes of these specifications are to provide guidance
and establish minimum requirements that enable a quality product to be built. The final product must
meet the expectations of the designer to protect public safety and provide the expected level of service.
A construction quality index (CQI) is a rational measure of the overall quality of a constructed facility,
calculated by determining the quality of the individual components and linking them together to obtain
a composite quality index for the job. The CQI can be used to rate the quality of the product produced
by the contractor, to determine the contractor’s compensation, or to lower or eliminate a contractor’s
qualification status.
The CQI model was implemented in the Microsoft Windows® operating system as a stand-alone
application called CQI Calculator. The application runs from one window and displays several screens
to simplify and organize data entry. Data can be easily imported or exported from text files, and reports
in HTML format can be produced from the input data.
