Which action best ensures the concrete temperature remains within spec at delivery, and is documented accordingly?

• A. Ignore if within tolerance
• B. Wait for a cooler day
• C. Re-route to another site
• D. Use corrective action per site procedures to bring temperature within spec and document

Answer: (D)

Handling concrete temperature at delivery means using the site's approved corrective actions and recording the outcome. When the temperature is not within spec, you follow the documented procedures to bring it into range—this could involve approved cooling measures, adjusting placement timing, or other methods defined by the project—and then log what was done and the resulting temperature. Documentation provides traceability and proof that the concrete was managed to meet requirements. Ignoring the deviation, waiting for a cooler day, or rerouting without applying the approved corrective steps don’t actively address the issue or provide the necessary record, so they aren’t appropriate approaches.
