Cleanliness

Maintaining cleanliness while testing is essential to ensure the accuracy, reliability, and integrity of test results. We make sure that the left-over concrete sample goes into the skip bin provided on site. Technicians are trained to use a heavy-duty plastic sheet on the floor to ensure the floor doesn’t get dirty.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

It is fundamental that hardened reinforced concrete cracks in the tensile zone when subjected to externally imposed structural loads. Cracks in concrete are due to stresses which it intrinsically sustains by the nature of its constituent’s materials.

The concrete slump test is a widely used and crucial procedure in the construction industry to assess the workability and consistency of freshly mixed concrete. The slump test is a quick and simple method to measure the workability of concrete. Workability is a key property indicating how easily the concrete can be mixed, placed, and compacted without segregation or bleeding.

Cracks in concrete slabs can occur due to various factors. The basic cause is loss of water during hardening stage. The most common cracks are the shrinkage cracks. Shrinkage cracks are of two types, short term, and long term. Short term shrinkage cracks are small thin and are formed in the early stage and no specific repair is required. Long term shrinkage cracks are long thin cracks. Cracks more than 0.3mm in width needs a repair. Most of the time, the concrete supplier is blamed for cracks in concrete however, it is important to understand that cracks occur after placing the concrete hence compaction and curing of concrete is of prime importance.

It is very important to sample the concrete correctly. The concrete sample should be collected after the discharge of at least 0.2m3 of concrete. The bucket/scoop should be placed in the centre of the chute as while the concrete is discharging, more often the paste and excess water remains on the sides of the chute while aggregate with appropriate cement paste flows through the centre of the chute.

Testimonial

What Our Client’s Say

BISTEL Construction awarded the concrete testing package to OZ Material Testing on several of our Residential and Commercial projects. The challenges on the projects were extensive with difficult access and out of hours pour times (including Saturdays). Sid and his team were very knowledgeable of the Australia Standard requirements, were always on time at the pour site, and attended to their work in a very safe and professional manner. They undertook all of the site slump and concrete cone preparation, collected the concrete cylinders when required and tested these at the requisite days and times, without any reminder required from Bistel Construction. The test reports are accurate, easy to read and understand and are highly praised by our structural engineers. We have subsequently awarded Oz Material Testing additional works are on additional current projects. We would recommend Oz Material Testing to any of their clients for quality, timely completion, and economical pricing.

Joseph Martin
Managing Director

Oz Material Testing has provided a great service to Dallcon. They have numerous concrete tests on their scope that other big testing companies in Western Australia don't have. Sid is very knowledgeable and always willing to help. Results are always turned around in a timely manner. Would highly recommend Oz Material Testing.
