Services
Geotechnical Engineering
Our geotechnical engineering services provide critical subsurface data through soil borings and groundwater investigations. Using in-house drill rigs and specialized equipment, we assess soil properties and stability for construction projects. Our engineers deliver detailed reports with foundation recommendations and slope stability analysis.
Construction Material Testing
We conduct comprehensive testing of construction materials including concrete, asphalt, and masonry. Our IDOT-certified technicians perform field inspections and laboratory analysis to verify compliance with quality standards. Services include nuclear density testing and non-destructive evaluations.
Pavement Coring
Our pavement coring services evaluate existing roadways and surfaces through core sampling. This testing determines structural integrity and informs maintenance or reconstruction decisions. We analyze samples in our accredited laboratory for precise composition assessment.
Quality Assurance
We implement quality assurance programs that verify construction materials meet specified standards. Through IDOT-certified testing and AASHTO-accredited laboratory analysis, we ensure compliance with project specifications and regulatory requirements.
Soil Borings
Our soil boring services provide essential data for foundation design and earthwork projects. Using specialized drilling equipment, we collect soil samples for laboratory testing and analyze bearing capacity, compaction, and groundwater conditions.
