LABORATORY TESTS

To ensure the highest level of accuracy and compliance, all laboratory testing is carried out through facilities that hold UKAS accreditation. This guarentees that every result is independently verified against recognised national standards. 

The laboratory tests that we can facilitate are as follows:

• ATTERBERG LIMITS
• CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO (CBR)
• CARBONATE CONTENT
• CHEMICAL ANALYSIS (ICRCL)/(CLEA)
• CHLORIDE ION CONTENT
• COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF MORTAR CUBES
• COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE CUBES
• CONCRETE CHEMICAL TESTING 
• CONTAMINATION ANALYSIS
• CORE CUTTER DENSITY
• DENSIT OF CONCRETE
• DRY DENSITY/MOISTURE RELATIONSHIP
• FROST SUSCEPTIBILITY (FROST HEAVE)
• MOISTURE CONDITION VALUE (MCV)
• MOISTURE CONTENT
• MULTI ELEMENT SCANS
• ORGANC MATTER CONTENT
• PARTICLE DENSITY (GAS JAR)
• PARTICLE DENSITY (SMALL PYKNOMETER)
• PARTICLE SIZE DISTRIBUTION - WASHING AND SIEVING
• PARTICLE SIZE DISTRIBUTION (PIPETTE METHOD)
• PH VALUE
• POROSITY DETERMINATION
• SHEAR BOX TESTING
• SHEAR VANE TESTING
• SULPHTE CONTENT (AQUEOUS)
• SULPHATE CONTENT (TOTAL)
• TOTAL OXIDE ANALYSIS
• UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH
• UNDRAINED SHEAR STRENGTH
• UNIFORMITY COEFFICIENT
