Ready Mix Concrete (RMC) plays an important role in modern construction due to its superior quality, consistency, and faster construction process compared to conventional site-mixed concrete. Quality control in RMC plants is essential to ensure the strength, durability, workability, and reliability of concrete used in infrastructure projects. This paper presents an experimental study on quality control practices adopted in Ready Mix Concrete plants. The study focuses on testing of raw materials, batching operations, workability assessment, compressive strength evaluation, and quality assurance procedures. Laboratory and field tests such as slump test, compressive strength test, sieve analysis, water absorption test, and specific gravity test were conducted to evaluate concrete performance. The study also highlights the importance of automation, mix proportioning, and quality monitoring systems in maintaining consistency in concrete production. The results indicate that systematic quality control procedures significantly improve the performance and durability of concrete while reducing material wastage and construction defects.
