Laboratory Investigation Services

The laboratory is modern and most of the instruments are digitized. Facilities are available for material testing

• Cement
• Aggregates
• Concrete
• Concrete Blocks
• Pavement blocks, tiles
• Performance evaluation of Mineral admixtures, Plastisizers, Superplastisizers, Hyperplastisizers, Polymers,Epoxies, Water Proofing Compounds etc.
• Water test for suitability to concrete

Concrete Mix Design

• Microconcretes
• Self compacting concretes
• Silica fume concrete
• Metakaoline concrete
• Durability consideration
• Workability consideration
• Strength parameter
• Special concrete required for specific structural members

Chemical Analysis

• Chemical analysis of concrete for pH values, Chloride ingress, Sulphate ingress etc.
• Chemical analysis of Soil.
• Chemical analysis of water, Suitability for concrete

Geotechnical Investigation and Design of Foundations

FIELD TESTS

• Bore hole drilling, collection of disturbed and undisturbed samples for further testing at laboratory
• Standard penetration, static cone penetration test and plate load tests.

LABORATORY TESTS

• Atterberg limits, grain size, triaxial, CBR and other relevant laboratory tests, design of suitable foundation and allowable bearing pressure.

Design of Pavements

• Carrying out CBR
• Compaction and in-situ density tests.
• Pavement design
