In construction, the integrity of your concrete or asphalt is only as good as the stone within it. We provide comprehensive Coarse Aggregates Testing to ensure your materials meet rigorous industry standards and project specifications. Our laboratory strictly adheres to ASTM standards to guarantee precision, durability, and safety for every project.
We determine the particle size distribution of your aggregates. This is critical for ensuring proper packing and workability in concrete mixes.
We measure the amount of fine material (silt and clay) that could potentially weaken the bond between the aggregate and the cement paste.
This test evaluates the hardness of the aggregate. By subjecting the material to degradation, we determine its resistance to crushing and wear during handling and service.
We assess the resistance of aggregates to weathering, specifically their ability to withstand repeated freezing and thawing or wetting and drying cycles.
This essential measurement helps calculate the volume occupied by the aggregate in various mixtures and determines its water absorption rate.
We measure the density of the aggregate and the percentage of voids between particles, which is vital for accurate batching and yield calculations.
We identify and quantify weak materials that can break down easily, ensuring your aggregate is free of contaminants that cause surface defects or reduced strength.
Using untested or sub-standard aggregates can lead to structural cracking, poor durability, and costly rework. Our reports provide the clarity and consistency needed to:
Comply with local and international building codes.
Optimize mix designs for cost-efficiency.
Ensure long-term structural performance.
We provide transparent reporting and realistic timelines to keep your project on track. Whether you are a contractor, developer, or engineer, we ensure your materials are fit for purpose.
