CONCRETE LABORATORY
The properties of concrete depend on the properties of its ingredients and their proportion, and it is likely to vary from mix to mix, Due to its importance within the construction industry the quality of concrete is paramount. Tests must therefore be conducted, to ensure that the concrete used is in accordance with design specifications.
