        I think consultant must check only high points and low points as those are marked in the approved by authority drawings.
        All the intermediate points are for support of the ducts purpose (maintaining the profile during concreting) and are figured only in the shop drawings which are not submitted for approval, neither to consultant nor to local authority.

          in addttion to the above comment. high points and low points only are to be checked which are as per approved drawing…but then as for PROPER installation we have to maintain the parabolic profile of the tendon by means of proper placement of intermediate chairs.

              In a full perspective, the tendon layout must conform the drawings to ensure quality. So you need to check position along the tendon.

              You can simplify this though. Slab thickness is relatively small, so when high and low points are correct as per drawings, the other positions are theoretically also correct.

              In case of beam, you must at least check 1 other point: the inflection.
