Our Geotechnical Laboratory provides a full range of geotechnical engineering and construction materials testing services consisting of geotechnical (soil/rock), aggregate & research materials.

Our laboratory provides a large number of soil index tests including but not limited to moisture content, sieve analysis, Atterberg Limits, chemical testing, CBR and compaction. Our laboratory is equipped to handle and test contaminated soil samples.

Soil Index Testing

Engineering soil properties are tested via static (non-cyclic) methods such as Unconfined Compression, Triaxial (UU, CU, CD), Consolidation, Direct Shear, Direct Simple Shear and Permeability.

Advance Soil Testing

Engineering soil properties are tested via cyclic/dynamic methods using Triaxial and Direct Simple Shear testing equipment.

Specialty Soil Testing

Our laboratory provides a large number of aggregate tests including but not limited to sieve analysis, specific gravity and LA abrasion.

Aggregate Testing

We provide strength, deformation and index testing of rock samples in accordance with ASTM and ISRM test procedures. The lab uses high-capacity testing equipment to perform strength testing of rock including unconfined compression, direct shear, Brazilian tensile strength, elastic modulus, triaxial strength. We can prepare test specimens from, boulders, bulk samples or cores with our equipment.

Rock Testing

We have the flexibility, experience and know-how to customize equipment and procedures to test for unusual or unique requirements. This includes equipment to conduct large scale consolidation testing of wick drain materials. We can also perform workability tests on sediments and stabilization admixtures such as lime and cement.
