What materials do you need to be tested?
Whether it's in the field or the lab, we are here to perform the tests you need. Featured are key terms to be familiar with and in-demand tests that our technicians can perform.
No matter the project size or type, we can handle it.
Proctor
A proctor is a sample of material collected at the site and is brought to our lab and evaluated through various testing methods. Results for density and compaction tests are invalid unless a proctor is collected.
Blower Door
A specialized fan is placed in the front door of a residential home, measuring the air pressure and airflow. Identifying leaks will uncover flaws in door installation and recommendations are provided.
Compaction
A concrete sample is taken from your site and returned to our lab where our laboratory technicians perform a standard compaction test. Results provide valuable information about the material's load-bearing capacity and its overall quality.
Density
Density testing assesses the compactness of soil, asphalt, or concrete. Ensure that your materials are complying with plan specifications and will support the intended structure.
