One of the key ingredients of a growing and successful economy is the Construction industry, as the infrastructure of a country relies heavily on it. The best example of a growing economy is India, where of late there has been a surge of construction activities happening throughout the country involving almost each and every sphere of work. As a result, the Construction industry is poised to become the second largest contributor to India's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Construction activities can range from building of roads, highways, buildings, towers, dams, etc. Now, the foundation of any construction work hinges on the use of 'Building Materials', which include 'cement, steel, concrete, aggregates, soil, fly ash, ceramics, bricks' etc. The quality of such building materials is of paramount importance in ensuring toughness and durability of the constructed part, besides ensuring safety for all those people who would use it. Various regulations, related to such materials, are been enforced from time to time by the government, and every manufacturer has to ensure that the products manufactured are compliant with those regulations.
Since different construction items have different properties and also their applications are varied, a number of national and international specifications pertaining to the scope of application and any relevant regulatory requirements have been formulated. The analyses of building materials have to be conducted as per various accepted standardized test methods. The various standards include IS, ASTM, BIS, ISO etc.
