Day 11: Concrete Plant & Midterm Exam

In the morning, we visited the Ready Mix Beton concrete plant. We learned all about the ingredients in concrete and how to manipulate them in order to produce different qualities and functions of concrete. Then, we toured the facilities, conducted a slump test, and visited the mixing cabin to see how the concrete is transported into the mixing truck. The highlight of the trip was when Mr. Adel brought out toys to show us how operations functioned in the plant.



After visiting the concrete plant, we frantically studied on the bus ride back to the DCC offices because we were planning on having a midterm after lunch. To our surprise, we got back to the office and we were greeted with not one, but two quizzes! I know what you're thinking, "oh this is much better than a midterm!" But, sadly, we still had the midterm after lunch.

Some people did great on the quizzes so they were awarded with KitKats! Some people... not so great, but it helped us learn our mistakes.



After all of these exams, we needed to relax. The stress level was high in the office. We finished the day with some desk yoga instructed by EunSeong Choi.



After yoga, we felt we needed some more fun after a tough day of 3 exams. We went to a beautiful rooftop restaurant, Level43. Then, we went back to the apartments to prepare for tomorrow's Midterm Presentations!
