Abstract
This chapter describes the quality assurance and quality control requirements relating to procedures for on-site materials for concrete, including storage, production, testing and record keeping, in accordance with the industry codes and standards. It addresses the responsibilities of the suppliers, submittals, and in-process testing of concrete materials and concrete. Acceptance criteria for concrete strength testing and construction tolerances are discussed.
Case studies from several projects are included with discussion on aggregate tests and concrete production tests concerning the quality control and non-conforming issues during construction.
