Book Chapter 42  Soundness and Deleterious Substances

Download or read book Chapter 42 Soundness and Deleterious Substances written by L. Dolar-Mantuani and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past 100 or more years many tests have been developed and applied to assess the quality of concrete aggregates. This paper is a discussion of the significance of five aggregate quality tests currently in use. One of them, the sulfate soundness test (ASTM Test for Soundness of Aggregates by Use of Sodium Sulfate or Magnesium Sulfate (C 88)), is perhaps the most widely used of all methods for determining the overall quality of aggregate. The other four tests are used to determine the presence of specific harmful particles or substances which influence the mix proportions of fresh concrete or its early stage hardening, or which damage the concrete surface under specific circumstances.

Book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
