DEVELOPMENT OF A QUALITY CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION USING THE LABORATORY INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM U-LAB

Abstract

The article presents the results of the scientific and applied development of the quality control system for road construction and testing of road building materials using the laboratory information management system (LIMS) U-LAB, developed and implemented by the UralNIIstrom Institute. The basic principles of laboratory quality control of road construction are described, as well as the advantages of using the developed LIMS U-LAB for organizing and increasing the efficiency of la-boratory quality control of construction and testing of road building materials, improving the inte-raction between road management bodies and contracting, design and scientific organizations in-volved in road construction. The data on the program interface, the system elements and the tech-nical and economic indicators of implementation in the Test Center “UralNIIstrom” in 2020 are pre-sented. LIMS U-LAB is recommended to be used in the road-industry test centers and laboratories for the improvement of the organization and efficiency of quality control of road construction and testing of road building materials.
