Testing at every stage of your project

Our Civil Engineering Laboratory covers mechanical, physical and chemical testing of construction materials. We support you before, during and after construction.

Pre-construction

Advice on selecting the right materials for your design and specification.

During construction

Compliance testing of site materials and ready-mix concrete.

Post-construction

Investigation and consultancy on material-related problems.
