Laboratory Technician
CurrentIn my role at Cement Australia, I am responsible for the testing of many aspects of the construction materials field. My Tasks often included physical tests, such as porosity, direct and indirect tensile strength, and chemical testing to verify the quality and makeup of the cementious material we provide. Most of this work performed by us at Cement Australia relates to quality assurance, as we have a huge desire to ensure the material we provide to the customer can withstand the rigours of their needs.This role has many challenging and rewarding aspects, as it require a physical presence to perform the more physical tasks, such as mixing the larger batches of material, or preparation and conditioning of the aggregrate to the standard that we require, to the more cerebral tasks, analysing patterns of data and finding cause for inconsistency that we can then further address.
