Concrete Testing Adherence Collaboration (CTAC)
In an effort to improve accurate testing of concrete quality on job sites, CalCIMA is proud to offer ready mixed concrete producers the opportunity to participate in the Concrete Testing Adherence Collaboration (CTAC).
CTAC allows producers to observe and record concrete testing procedures on job sites. This means observing that established practices are followed for obtaining, handling, storing, and transporting concrete samples. It provides a consistent way to assess that your concrete is being properly tested. And, it provides a resource for concrete producers to interact with laboratories and contractors.
The benefits are to improve quality, facilitate communication and reduce costs. It is additionally important for ensuring your product’s sustainability benefits are accurately measured.
It is easy to add CTAC to your activities. It simply requires downloading an app to your cell phone. Then, for each pour you are able to observe and check boxes on 4 key aspects of testing. There is minimal or no additional time commitment for your personnel. There is also capability to take pictures of the practices. All the information downloads into the CTAC program, where the company can view data on particular pours, jobs, testers, or other criteria.
There is no cost for CalCIMA members to participate.
CTAC is sponsored by CalCIMA for members in conjunction with a national program.
