Project inputs

## Concrete testing cannot be priced from strength alone.

The project address, permit/specification, mix designs, quantities, frequency, placement schedule and filing obligations determine the executable scope.

FIELD
### Placement-day testing

Dispatch windows, technician credentials, slump, air, temperature, specimen fabrication and field records as required by the specification.

SPECIMENS
### Cylinders and curing

Specimen identity, initial curing, pickup, laboratory receipt, curing conditions and scheduled breaks.

STRENGTH
### Compressive strength

Break schedule, report routing, missing specimens, low results, supplemental requirements and closeout tracking.

MIX
### Mix-design coordination

Required documentation and provider role are separated from field-testing responsibility when the project or code requires it.

DOB
### Licensed-provider review

Applicable NYC Department of Buildings laboratory, inspection and filing responsibilities are confirmed per project.

SCHEDULE
### Capacity and coverage

Geographic coverage, notice requirements, concurrent placements, after-hours work and reporting turnaround.

Important NYC boundary: 516Labs is not a concrete testing laboratory, special inspection agency or engineering firm. Applicable TR2/TR3, laboratory, inspection, filing and professional responsibilities remain with DOB-licensed and otherwise qualified parties.

Before the first pour

## Send the specification and placement schedule.

We will identify missing scope, qualification and capacity questions before seeking provider pricing.
