Design and Control of Concrete Mixtures

Design and Control of Concrete Mixtures has been the cement and concrete industry's primary reference on concrete technology, since PCA published the first U.S. edition in the early 1920s.

The current course, based on this industry standard, reflects the latest advances in concrete technology. The result: a fast-paced, eLearning program, developed especially for ready-mix concrete personnel who need fundamental yet practical concrete knowledge.

The course consists of more than 16 hours of instruction covering materials for concrete, mixing, transporting, placing, finishing, curing, and designing and proportioning concrete.
