Pavement Core Test Results Missing Before Final Payment Email Template

Use this page when final payment is delayed because the buyer says the pavement core test results, asphalt thickness report, or surfacing acceptance test record is still missing. This is different from a compaction report because it focuses on the coring evidence used to confirm layer thickness, material placement, or pavement build-up. The commercial problem is that the surfacing works may already be laid and open to traffic, but the payer is still withholding payment until the core test results are submitted and approved. Your email should ask whether the pavement-core results are the only remaining blocker, whether cores have already been taken, what section or result is still open, and whether payment will be released once that report is accepted. The outcome you want is to tie the delay to one named pavement-testing deliverable rather than broad comments about unfinished civil QA.
