A ready-mix load waits through a site access delay and arrives near the specification's maximum discharge time. Slump is low and the batch ticket shows no approved retarder. What should happen before placement?
Correct Answer
C) Verify acceptance under the specification with testing and authorization, or reject the load if it is out of limits
A delayed load near the time limit must meet the specification at discharge; testing and authorization are needed, and an out-of-limit load should be rejected. Other choices: ticket age alone, undocumented water, and unrecorded blending defeat quality control.
