Protocols for Improving the Proficiency of Material Testing Laboratories in Mozambique

The pilot Proficiency Testing Scheme is developing a baseline for the precision limits for common tests on road construction materials

Abstract

The pilot Proficiency Testing Scheme (PTS) for Mozambique is developing a baseline for the precision limits for the common tests on road construction materials. The baseline has been used to assess laboratory capacity and identify where constraints lie and where specific training and other interventions may be required. The purpose of this report is to summarise the process for the implementation of the proficiency testing scheme including the results of the third round of the PTS, and final recommendations on a permanent PTS operation for Mozambique.
