SOILS LABORATORY TESTING
Braun Intertec brings you more than 50 years of experience in testing construction materials, with a specialization in soils and geosynthetic materials. Using a variety of tests, we’re able to evaluate your soil’s characteristics such as strength, hydraulic conductivity and resistivity. At Braun Intertec you have access to a laboratory accredited under ASTM D 3740, "Minimum Requirements for Agencies Engaged in the Testing and/or Inspection of Soil and Rock as Used in Engineering Design and Control." This type of third-party validation demonstrates that our laboratory technicians have a solid understanding of the stringent testing standards and the ability to perform these tests accordingly.
Our soils testing includes:
- Moisture content
- Density
- Atterberg Limits
- Gradation and hydrometer
- One-dimensional consolidation
- Hydraulic conductivity
- Unconfined compression
- Direct shear
- Triaxial (UU, CU, CD) shear tests
- Resistivity
- Corrosion
