In this paper, an original method is presented for quality control based on Weibull's law for the distribution of random quantities with variable parameters. The nomographs obtained for determining the extremal values of the parameters and the defectiveness index can be used for various cases in the statistical reduction of research results. The proposed method can be used for quality control for both highly uniform data (in the United States, the measured values are assumed to have a normal distribution for this purpose) and highly nonuniform data. The method described here is widely used in the USSR for quality control in the construction and maintenance of roads.
