Natural Moisture Content
· The Natural Moisture Content Test is a fundamental geotechnical soil test used to determine the amount of water present in soil under natural conditions. Moisture content plays a critical role in evaluating soil behavior, strength, compressibility, and suitability for construction purposes.
To determine the natural water content of soil at the site
To assess soil consistency and engineering properties
To support foundation design and earthwork planning
To evaluate soil condition before construction activities
Specific Gravity
We conduct the Specific Gravity Test using calibrated equipment, experienced technicians, and strict quality control procedures, ensuring reliable and repeatable results in compliance with recognized standards.
The Specific Gravity Test is a standard geotechnical laboratory test used to determine the specific gravity of soil solids. It represents the ratio of the density of soil particles to the density of water and is an essential parameter for soil classification and engineering analysis.
To determine the specific gravity (G) of soil particles
To assist in soil classification
To calculate void ratio, porosity, and degree of saturation
To support design of foundations, pavements, and earthworks
Grain Size Distribution
Our geotechnical laboratory performs Grain Size Distribution analysis using standardized procedures, calibrated sieves, and experienced professionals, ensuring accurate and repeatable results compliant with national and international standards.
The Grain Size Distribution Curve represents the particle size distribution of soil and is obtained through sieve analysis and hydrometer analysis. It is a fundamental geotechnical test used to understand soil gradation and classify soil based on particle sizes.
To determine the percentage of gravel, sand, silt, and clay in soil
To evaluate soil gradation characteristics
To support soil classification systems
To assess suitability of soil for construction and earthworks
Liquid & Plastic Limits
We perform Liquid and Plastic Limit Tests using standardized procedures, calibrated equipment, and skilled technicians, ensuring accurate determination of Atterberg Limits in compliance with recognized standards.
The Liquid Limit and Plastic Limit Tests, commonly known as Atterberg Limits, are essential geotechnical laboratory tests used to determine the consistency and plasticity characteristics of fine-grained soils. These limits define the moisture content at which soil changes from one state to another and are widely used in soil classification and engineering design.
To determine the Liquid Limit (LL) and Plastic Limit (PL) of soil
To calculate the Plasticity Index (PI)
To classify fine-grained soils
To evaluate soil behavior under varying moisture conditions
Standard & Modified Proctor Test
Our geotechnical laboratory conducts Standard and Modified Proctor Tests using calibrated equipment, standardized procedures, and experienced professionals, ensuring accurate determination of compaction parameters as per applicable codes.
The Standard and Modified Proctor Tests are laboratory compaction tests used to determine the optimum moisture content (OMC) and maximum dry density (MDD) of soil. These parameters are essential for achieving proper soil compaction in earthworks and foundation construction.
To determine Optimum Moisture Content (OMC)
To determine Maximum Dry Density (MDD)
To establish compaction requirements for field work
To ensure stability and durability of soil structures
Standard & Modified Proctor Test
Our laboratory performs the Direct Shear Test with state-of-the-art equipment, following industry standards and quality control procedures. We provide reliable and precise results, ensuring your project’s foundation and structural design are based on accurate soil strength data.
he Direct Shear Test is a laboratory test used to determine the shear strength parameters of soil, specifically the cohesion (c) and angle of internal friction (ϕ). This test simulates the conditions under which soil shear failure occurs, making it essential for evaluating soil stability, slope stability, and foundation design.
To determine the shear strength of soil under controlled conditions
To calculate the cohesion (c) and friction angle (ϕ)
To evaluate soil behavior under shear stress
To support foundation design, slope stability, and earthworks projects
The Direct Shear Test is performed by applying a normal load to a soil sample contained in a shear box. The soil is then subjected to a horizontal shear force until failure occurs. The test is typically performed at varying normal stresses, and the shear strength is calculated based on the force required to cause failure at different levels of applied load.
Direct Shear Test
Our laboratory performs the Direct Shear Test using precise and calibrated equipment to meet national and international standards. Our experienced geotechnical engineers follow strict protocols to ensure accurate and repeatable test results, which are essential for making well-informed decisions in soil and foundation design.
