Abstract
Resistive plate chambers will be used in the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment to help veto backgrounds created by cosmic-ray muons. The mass production of RPCs began in 2008 and by the end of 2009, 1600 RPCs (3500 m 2+) had been produced and tested.
This paper describes the production and quality control procedures, and quality assurance using cosmic-ray testing.
