What is this a trick question
![smile :smile:](/f2/epx.png)
QC (Quality Control)
QA (Quality Assurance)
One does the checks (QC)
The other makes sure there is a plan and it is satisfactorily implemented and audited for possible improvement (QA)
We don't have QA as such in the company I work for, Just a VP to chew my butt when something slips through, fortunately nothing slips through.
Good Luck

In a dream I realized the answer was not well thought out or given.
AISC Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, June 22, 2010
Quality control. Controls and inspections implemented by the fabricator or erector, as applicable, to ensure that the material provided and work performed meet the requirements of
the approved construction documents and referenced standards.
Quality assurance. Monitoring and inspection tasks performed by an agency or firm other
than the fabricator or erector to ensure that the material provided and work performed by
the fabricator and erector meet the requirements of the approved construction documents
and referenced standards. Quality assurance includes those tasks designated “special
inspection” by the applicable building code.
Sorry about any confusion
