With regards to the quality problem of concrete that cant be found out earlier in the quality control, this paper discussed the principle to rapidly detect composition of concrete mixture and analyzed the measurement accuracy of water checker for fresh concrete through laboratory test. Experiments showed that the error in unit cement and unit water measured by instruments is relatively small and able to meet the accuracy requirements. And, the application of rapid detection techniques to the concrete quality control in practical engineering has achieved good results.

Concrete is the most extensively used material in building and civil project structure. With the rapid development of economic construction, urban construction and infrastructure construction increase year by year, so there is a greater demand for concrete, which brings the rapid development of ready-mixed concrete industry. During the rapid development, structural safety and durability problems caused by concrete quality appear frequently. Meanwhile, to implement the fundamental national policies of resource conservation and environment protection, according to Green Building Action Plan (GUOBANFA [2013] No.1) approved by CPC Central Committee and the State Council, besides meeting the quality requirements, ready-mixed concrete must also meet the green products requirements of "energy conservation, emission reduction, safety, convenience and recyclability" for the vigorous development of green building material and supporting the requirements for building energy conservation, green building and new-type urbanization construction. By quality testing, this paper elaborates the green assessment technology for ready-mixed concrete in combination with raw material quality control, design of mix ratio, production process quality control, construction process quality control, residual concrete treatment, hardened concrete quality control, and control of dust, noise and wastewater. The greening of ready-mixed concrete brings the production and application of green building material, promotes the transformation and upgrading of building material industry and drives the development of green building.

Unexpected defects of concrete in a completed bored pile can arise during the construction stage. Therefore, post-construction testing of bored pile concrete is an important part of the design and construction process. The Cross-hole Sonic Logging (CSL) method has been the most widely used to examine the concrete quality. This method requires some access tubes pre-installed inside bored piles prior to concreting; the required quantity of access tubes has been pointed out in few literatures and also ruled in the national standard of Vietnam (TCVN 9395:2012). However, theoretical bases aiming to decide the required quantity of access tubes have not been given yet. A probability approach is proposed in this paper aiming to determine the essential quantity of access tubes, which depend not only on pile diameters, magnitude of defects, but also on the technical characteristics of CSL equipment. Keywords: access tubes; bored piles; CSL method; defects; inspection probability.

Quality control of structural concrete has been conducted for several decades based mainly on the results of axial compression tests. This kind of test, although widely used, is not exempt from errors and has some considerable drawbacks that may affect its reliability, such as the need for appropriate and careful specimen conditioning and adoption of adequate capping techniques. For these reasons, it would be useful to have complementary or alternative ways to check compressive strength, in order to improve concrete quality control. The use of a bond test to monitor concrete strength is being proposed by an international group of researchers from France, Tunisia and Brazil as a potential means to this end. Given the fact that the link between bond resistance and concrete strength is already well established, this type of test seems to be a viable alternative to traditional methods. Nonetheless, to check if the underlying principle is sound when used in different circumstances, the group has been gathering data from several studies conducted by different researchers in various countries, with distinct concretes and rebar types. An analysis of the data collected shows that there is a clear and strong correlation between bond resistance and compressive strength, no matter the influence of other variables. This result validates the basic idea of using an Appropriate Pull-Out (APULOT) bond test to assess concrete strength. If the general principle is valid for random data obtained from different studies, the definition of a clear and appropriate test will probably lead to the reduction of experimental noise and increase the precision of the strength estimates obtained using this method.
