The National Concrete Pavement Technology Center (CP Tech Center) has released Quality Control for Concrete Paving: A Tool for Agency and Industry, authored by Tara Cavalline (UNC Charlotte), Gary Fick (Transtec) and Al Innis (Holcim). The guide serves as a resource for concrete paving contractors and agency personnel for best quality practices at the batch plant, behind the paver and at other locations on the job. The guide can be used by contractors to improve or enhance their existing QC programs and plans by incorporating into their current operations appropriate tools, processes and procedures likely to meet agency requirements. The guide is also useful for agency personnel as a reference for the components of a comprehensive QC plan for concrete paving projects and includes recommendations for incorporating QC requirements into specifications. Good quality control is an investment that enables increased efficiency and productivity for contractors and can result in safe and long-lasting roads for the traveling public.
