The control of concrete quality is essential to avoid structural failure. The two primary concrete tests are workability using the slump test and the cube compressive strength of the delivered mix. In both cases, a strict sampling technique is used to ensure the integrity of the testing. This is carried out in accordance with BS EN 12350-1.
