Uncompromising Quality Control
T.E.S.T.. operates under a rigorous quality assurance policy manual, with standard operating procedures (SOPs) that satisfy the quality standards of ASTM D3740, E329, and AASHTO R18. All equipment is calibrated with NIST-traceable instrumentation at the required frequency.
Our excellent record (4 or 5 out of 5) in the annual AASHTO proficiency sample program and zero deficiencies found during our last seven AASHTO bi-annual audits are a testament to our perfect quality control system.
Core Principles of Our Geotechnical Analysis
As presented in our technical papers and symposiums, our approach is rooted in a deep understanding of soil mechanics and a commitment to standardized, repeatable testing.
Soil Classification & Properties
We determine the fundamental characteristics of soil, including Atterberg limits and particle size distribution, to classify materials accurately per ASTM and AASHTO standards. This forms the basis of all sound geotechnical design.
Compaction & Density Analysis
Our laboratory conducts Standard and Modified Proctor tests to establish the optimal moisture-density relationship for soil. This is critical for ensuring the stability and performance of foundations, embankments, and roadways.
Strength & Shear Testing
Through advanced tests like Direct Shear and Consolidated Undrained (CU) Triaxial, we precisely measure the shear strength of soil. This data, visualized in Mohr's Circles, is essential for designing safe and reliable structures.
