Field Test of Cement done by Civil Engineer at Construction Site
As we all know that testing of any building material prior to construction is very important in order to achieve strength and durability. Cement is one preliminary construction material that is used to prepare concrete. At the construction, it is not possible to perform all laboratory tests because once you do laboratory it will take time to get and conform results as per requirement, so in that particular condition, the field test is adopted to check the quality of material in a very short period of time.
