Laboratory Testing of Soil & Rock

NABL accredited (TC-12577) laboratory testing of soil, rock, aggregates, concrete and water: mechanical and chemical.

Overview

Laboratory Testing at SRGPL

Our state-of-the-art laboratory is accredited by NABL vide Certificate No. TC-12577 and carries out chemical, NDT and mechanical testing for both laboratory and field samples. Quality is our default service, and timely execution and delivery is what our clients pay us for.

Soil, stabilised soil, bentonite, rock, building stone, aggregates, concrete, ground water and construction water are all tested under one roof.

Why test with SRGPL

One laboratory for soil, rock, aggregate, concrete and water

Mechanical and chemical tests under one roof, so samples from one site do not travel between labs.

Advanced rock testing

From UCS and point load to triaxial, slake durability and Cerchar abrasiveness, the parameters needed for tunnels, deep foundations and rock cuts.

Accredited results

NABL accredited testing vide Certificate No. TC-12577 (ISO/IEC 17025:2017) for tests in our scope of accreditation, with reports that stand up in client and authority reviews.

Linked to the field

Our own drilling crews collect and transport samples, which keeps undisturbed samples undisturbed.
