To enroll in the Laboratory Certification program:

Prepare a Quality Manual for the candidate laboratory

The Quality Manual for the candidate laboratory should closely follow the requirements set forth in AASHTO R-18; under the CTTP Laboratory Certification Program, AASHTO R-18 provides the guiding principles for ensuring quality in a construction laboratory.

An example Quality Manual is available from CTTP and should include the following items:
  1. Company and personnel information
  2. Equipment inventory
  3. Equipment calibration or verification
  4. Schedule the "on-site" inspection for certification through CTTP
