Description: This booklet is designed to be a quick reference to items that should be looked at in the field concerning the testing of portland cement concrete. It is meant to give some general background and discuss the significance of the field tests that are performed. The typical values which are indicated in the manual are for reference only and should not be considered as a standard. For convenience, space has been provided at the end of the manual to record the State specification requirements for several classes of concrete.
