APPLICATION OF STATISTICS TO CONCRETE QUALITY CONTROL

Technical Release No. 34 discusses the statistical analysis of concrete test results. This information is important for quality control during construction and also is of value in redefining design criteria and specifications. This publication discusses briefly the variations that occur in the strength of concrete and presents statistical methods which are useful in interpreting these variations. A review of pertinent statistical relationships is given followed by a discussion of their practical application. Criteria are offered that can be used to establish specifications and maintain required uniformity.
