From QESTonline

This training course covers the duties normally performed by a laboratory technician, including:

  1. QESTLab
  2. Finding samples awaiting testing in QESTLab.
  3. Entering test raw data.

It covers concrete testing, soil field testing (compaction testing), and other aggregate/soil and asphalt testing.

Getting started with QESTLab

This module covers the process of starting and logging on to QESTLab, and a description of the main scren in QESTLab.

By the end of this module users will be able to start and log on to QESTLab, change their password, have an understanding of the main screen in QESTLab, and use the QESTLab tree to navigate the main areas of QESTLab.

Concrete testing

This module covers the process of finding concrete specimens due for testing and entering the raw test data after testing.

By the end of this module users will be able to use a QESTLab filter to display concrete specimens due for testing on any day, and further restrict this search by sample ID and fieldsheet. They will then be able to enter raw test data for these specimens and produce strength and density results, and record which technician did the testing.
