Soil Testing

Soil Testing Is Critical For Any Construction Project

Soil testing is critical before starting any construction project. Soil testing analyzes current soil conditions to determine precise admixtures necessary to maximize results. Building a solid foundation is crucial for the longevity and stability of any structure. One key aspect sometimes overlooked is the significance of soil testing before carrying out any construction. 

Soil testing provides vital information about:

• Soil stability
• Load-bearing capacity
• Compressive strength
• Appropriate stabilization admixture
• Chemical composition
• Potential challenges that may arise during construction

Every project is different, and every soil on each project is different. A mix design should be completed so informed decisions about the appropriate chemical admixture and application rate can be applied. Ultimately, this will ensure the desired outcomes are achieved on your project. We complete some testing in-house and also deal with all of the best geotechnical engineers to make sure your project will be a success.

Our current in-house testing includes:

• Moisture content testing
• Sulfate testing
• Soil compressive strength testing

For other needed testing, we utilize a certified laboratory.

Soil Testing Benefits

Soil testing prior to any construction project is critical to the long-term project success. Here are key benefits to soil testing:

  • Determine soil characteristics

  • Know the moisture content

  • Collect compaction data

  • Understand soil behavior

  • Identify soil permeability

  • Determine load bearing

  • Know sulfate levels

  • Find compressive strength

  • Maximize longevity & safety
