Concrete Testing

Concrete Testing is conducted as a quality control mechanism to ensure the various states of concrete meets requirements.

Methods of Testing Concrete

• AS 1012.1 – Sampling of fresh concrete*
• AS 1012.2 – Preparation of concrete mixes in the laboratory*
• AS 1012.3.1 – Determination of properties related to the consistency of concrete – slump test*
• AS 1012.5 – Determination of mass per unit volume of freshly mixed concrete*
• AS 1012.6 – Method for the determination of bleeding of concrete*
• AS 1012.8.1 – Method for making and curing concrete compression and indirect tensile test specimens*
• AS 1012.8.1 – Method for making and curing concrete compression and indirect tensile test specimens*
• AS 1012.9 – Determination of the compressive strength of concrete specimens*
• AS 1012.12.2 – Determination of mass per unit volume of hardened concrete – water displacement method*
• AS 1012.14 – Method for securing and testing cores from hardened concrete for compressive strength*
• AS 1012.19.1 – Accelerated curing of concrete compression test specimens – hot water method*
• AS 1012.19.2 – Accelerated curing of concrete compression test specimens – warm water method*
