Is a licensed construction supervisor required to be present on site for waterproofing installation?

  1. Yes, always

  2. No, a licensed designee can approve

  3. Only if complexity is high

  4. Only during initial installation

The correct answer is: No, a licensed designee can approve

A licensed construction supervisor is indeed permitted to have a licensed designee oversee tasks such as waterproofing installation. This provision allows the supervisor to maintain overall project accountability while delegating certain responsibilities to another qualified individual who can ensure that installation meets the required standards and complies with relevant codes. On construction sites, especially larger ones, the presence of a licensed supervisor at all times may not be practical or necessary, provided there is a trained and licensed designee in place who can effectively manage the task in question. This reflects an understanding of the supervisory role and the flexibility allowed in construction management. The focus on delegation ensures that the installation process doesn't get delayed unnecessarily, while still keeping the quality and compliance to a high standard.
