It focuses on the correct test procedures for Physical Tests of Hydraulic Cement and Field and Laboratory Tests of Concrete. It also provides background the construction personnel need to understand and perform the tests competently. Each test is described separately and can be shown individually if desired. This course conforms to the International Road Federation (IRF) standards.
