Quality Management for Cement, Aggregates and Building Materials
Cement, aggregate and building material producers across Africa must deliver consistent strength and grading, since variable product leads to failed structures and rejected loads. This course covers sampling, testing and process control for cement, aggregates, blocks and related materials, linking laboratory results to plant adjustments. Participants learn to control quality from raw material through to dispatched product.
