Quad-Lock has a long established tradition of excellence in
training the installers of its products. Quad-Lock is committed
to providing the best training tools and access to experienced
professionals to help ensure the success of every project
undertaken.
Quad-Lock has introduced a two-step qualification process that will educate
installers on the latest techniques being used to build with our solutions.
The first step, or 'pre-qualification', is a
6½ hour training
course that offers a mix of classroom and hands-on practices. At the end of this
course there is a written test that must be passed to be
recognized as 'pre-qualified' installer to work with Quad-Lock's building solutions.
The second step is an
assessment of the installer's abilities by a Quad-Lock
representative (or designate) on an actual jobsite. This evaluation will answer a number of questions,
such as:
Has the candidate followed manufacturer's specifications on a given
installation?
Has the candidate followed accepted practices for concrete placement?
Has the candidate constructed the project in accordance with plan
specifications and engineering?
What is the general condition of the job? Plumb, Straight, Square and
Level?
Has the candidate followed acceptable safety standards?
Is the jobsite clean, well organized and representative of Quad-Lock
standards?
Is the candidate properly licensed, insured and bonded in the
jurisdiction in which he normally operates?
An overall review of the job will be done to evaluate problems experienced
and corrective action taken. After a successful evaluation, the installer will
be endorsed as a "Qualified Quad-Lock Installer" and receive sales
leads, technical support etc. There are 3 categories that
installers may progress through in the qualification process:
Level I: Construction of below grade walls; Walls 8' high or less
Level II: Above grade single-storey construction
Level III: Commercial and multi-storey construction
