Description
The ACI CSA Standards Concrete Field Testing Technician Certification Program has been developed for the purpose of certifying concrete testing technicians who have demonstrated the knowledge and ability to perform, properly, the basic field tests on plastic concrete. With ever growing prevalence of the use of Self Consolidating Concrete (SCC) in the field, this newly revised certification program was revised and now includes the test standard CSA A23.2-19C Slump flow of concrete.
Certification of field test personnel by CSA International, Canadian Council of Independent Laboratories (CCIL) or ACI CSA Standards Concrete Field Testing Technician Certification Program (formerly ACI Concrete Field Testing Technician Grade 1) is a requirement of the CSA standard for concrete A23.1 Concrete materials and methods of concrete construction published by Canadian Standards Association (CSA).
Please note: This is not a training course. It is a certification program. Prior testing experience is required. Please be sure to study the workbook thoroughly prior to the video review session and exams!
The Video Review Session will be held Tuesday December 5th from 8:00 am to 12:30 pm at Lafarge WCAN Innovation Hub. Though this part is not compulsory to attend, it is highly recommended, even for the most seasoned field tester, so that everyone is very clear on all of the required procedures that will need to be maintained to successfully complete the Written and Performance exams in a safe and efficient manner.
The Test Methods Practice Session will be held Tuesday afternoon from 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm at Lafarge WCAN Innovation Hub.
The Written exam will be held Wednesday December 6th at 8:00 am at Lafarge WCAN Innovation Hub. Please be sure to bring your own HB pencil and eraser as well as a calculator. Cell phones are not permitted for use in ACI written exams. No food or drink will be provided. You may bring a bottle of water. Please take any empty bottles with you when you leave.
The Performance Exam will follow the same day, Wednesday December 6th at 10:00 a.m. at Lafarge WCAN Innovation Hub.
PPE will be the responsibility of the participant though there will be a very limited supply of disposable gloves should yours become inoperable at the time of the performance exam.
Please bring government issued photo ID such as a valid driver's license or a valid passport.
