Summary
As a quality control technician for Allen Keller company, I began as a 1A and after a year was given the opportunity to certify for my Level 2. As the only technician employed by Allen Keller, I was responsible for all the tasks and duties associated with Quality Control, from gradations on the stockpiles to sampling and testing hot mix. I also built mix designs, which I batched and verified in the lab, including correction factors.
