The effectiveness of a percussion drill method for making concrete cube samples to assess the characteristics of precast zero-slump concrete by Du Plessis, Pieter

“…Therefore, there is a need for a simple, standardised quality control method that considers the compaction achieved by precast machines. A suitable procedure was pursued with the following specific objectives; i) to formulate a practical and economical procedure for quality control based on the concrete density achieved by precast machines, and ii) to apply this method (i.e., percussion drill method) to mix optimisation with the specific objective of partial replacement of the cement in a specific factory mix with a suitable fine filler in order to reduce cost and the carbon footprint of a specific precast facility. …”
