Description
Summary:
This role involves comprehensive quality control and testing of aggregates and concrete, including mix design assistance and troubleshooting.
Highlights:
1. Perform quality control and testing of aggregates and concrete
2. Assist in developing new concrete mix designs
3. Troubleshoot concrete workability and performance issues
* Perform random sampling and testing of aggregates (fine and coarse) to ensure compliance with ASTM and internal standards (gradation, moisture content, specific gravity, and deleterious materials).
* Monitor cement and admixture deliveries for proper documentation and quality.
* Inspect aggregate stockpiles for contamination, segregation, or degradation.
* Conduct slump tests, air content tests, and temperature measurements on fresh concrete at the plant and jobsite in accordance with ASTM standards.
* Prepare, cast, and properly cure concrete cylinders for compressive strength testing.
* Perform compressive strength testing on hardened concrete cylinders at various ages (3, 7, 28 days).
* Make visual inspections of concrete for workability, finishability, and uniformity.
* Adjust batch weights (moisture compensation, admixture dosage) to maintain workability and yield as conditions change throughout the day.
* Troubleshoot workability or performance issues in the field.
* Assist in the development and implementation of new mix designs.
