Day in the Life
As a Quality Control Technician, you will play a crucial role both in the laboratory and in the field. Your primary responsibility will be to maintain a safe working environment by adhering to all safety guidelines. You will conduct laboratory testing on asphalt and gravel, including sieve analysis, gyratory testing, asphalt extractions, tensile strength testing, ignition oven testing, and stability and flow assessments. Additionally, you will examine samples and report any discrepancies in test and field reports.
In the field, you will perform quality control testing such as compaction using a density gauge, coring, and slabbing. You will ensure that all measuring equipment is properly calibrated and keep your supervisor informed of the testing results. Building and maintaining excellent relationships with owners, contract administrators, subcontractors, suppliers, and the public will be essential. You will also be responsible for sampling asphalt and gravel on job sites, completing the necessary paperwork, and creating detailed reports on the work completed.
