M.Test#5 : Making and curing compressive test specimens in Field AASHTO T 23-93

M.Test#5 : Making and curing compressive test specimens in Field AASHTO T 23-93

This test method covers procedures for making and curing cylindrical and prismatic beam specimen from representative sampled fresh concrete for a construction project. 
The concrete used to make molded specimens shall have the same levels of slump , air content , and percentage of coarse aggregate as represented in concrete 



M.test#4 Making and curing concrete test specimen in lab AASHTO T 126-93


M.Test#4: Making and curing compressive test specimen in lab AASHTO T 126-93

This test method covers procedures for making and curing test specimen of concrete in laboratory under accurate control of materials and test conditions using concrete that can be consolidate by rodding or vibration as described here

M.test#1 Slump Test ASTM C 143


Mix design of concrete test#1: SLUMP TEST ASTM C 143


This test method covers determination of slump of fresh concrete both in the laboratory and in the field .



S.test#8 : Classification Of Soil





S.Test#8 : Classification of soils AASHTO M 145-91

This recommended practice describes a procedure  for classifying soils into seven groups based on lab determination of particle-size distribution. Liquid limit,plastic limit , and plasticity index evaluation of soils within each group index , should be useful in determining relative  quality of soil material for use in earthwork structure , subbase , subgrade or others .

S.test#4 California Bearing Ratio


S.Tests#4: California Bearing Ration AASHTP T 193 - 93 ASTM D1883

This test method covers the determination of the California Bearing Ratio ( CBR) of pavement subgrade , subbase and basecoarse materials  rotary compacted specimen . 
The test method is primarily intended for - but not limited to - evaluating the strength of the cohesive materials having maximum particle sizes less than 19mm.It is the load to penetrate a cylinder with some speed to 0.1 in. or 01.2 in
