Construction Material Testing (CMT)
Better construction materials testing (CMT) outcomes compared to traditional methods:
- Faster – reduced time to test and get results (results are typically available real time so decisions can be made straight away
- More representative – focused on measuring the fundamental design parameters in the field (comparing like with like)
- Accurate and repeatable
- Non destructive – overcoming damage and rectification costs and subsequent issues (think key hole surgery vs open heart surgery)
- Without errors
- Equipment is instrumented – data is automatically and accurately recorded
- Results are machine produced – overcoming manual data recording, transposition or calculation errors and fictitious results
- GPS located and time stamped – know where and when every test is done
- Visually presented results (e.g. graphical)
- Improved safety
- Cost effective – efficient operation, typically one person
Our construction materials testing (CMT) methods are good in challenging conditions:
- Remote locations
- Soft, marshy or over-water ground conditions
- Hazardous locations (e.g. Contaminated sites)
- Confined spaces
Field CMT applications include soil & site investigation, compaction control, bearing capacity, geotechnical drilling, asphalt pavement investigation, concrete pavement investigation and condition assessments for rail ballast & formations and bridge decks & structures.
