INSPECTION AND QUALITY CONTROL OF CONCRETE
A SYMPOSIUM OF SEVEN BRIEF PAPERS BASED ON A SESSION SPONSORED BY ACI COMMITTEE 311, INSPECTION OF CONCRETE, AT THE 1967 ACI FALL MEETING IN DES MOINES ARE PRESENTED. THE ESSENTIALS OF SPECIFICATION PREPARATION ARE DISCUSSED. AN ENGINEER DISCUSSES THE ENGINEER'S ROLE IN CONSTRUCTION INSPECTION, AND A CONTRACTOR PRESENTS THE VIEW THAT THE MAJOR RESPONSIBILITY FOR INSPECTION SHOULD BE THE CONTRACTOR'S. SOME PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED IN INSPECTION ARE NOTED AND A PROCEDURE TO SOLVE THEM OFFERED. THE ADVANTAGES OR QUALITY CONTROL ARE LOOKED AT AND THE MEANS BY WHICH INSPECTION IS ACTUALLY BEING PROVIDED ARE REVIEWED. THE FINAL PAPER DISCUSSES WAYS IN WHICH PRIVATE ORGANIZATIONS CAN HELP TRAIN INSPECTORS. /AUTHOR/
