Services
Concrete Testing
Our AASHTO-accredited laboratory performs comprehensive concrete testing including compressive strength evaluation, mix design, and petrographic analysis. We conduct field testing for slump, air content, and cylinder break tests to ensure compliance with NYC DOB standards. Our services support quality control for new construction and forensic analysis of existing structures.
Structural Inspections
We provide structural inspections for buildings, foundations, and support systems including shoring and sheeting installations. Our licensed engineers assess structural stability, perform vibration monitoring, and evaluate curtain wall systems. Services include underpinning verification and floor flatness measurements to maintain safety and code compliance.
Non-Destructive Testing
Our non-destructive testing capabilities include Windsor probe testing, Schmidt hammer analysis, and ultrasonic pulse velocity measurements. These methods evaluate concrete integrity without damaging structures, providing cost-effective quality assessments. We combine NDT with coring when necessary to validate findings while minimizing disruption to construction schedules.
Soil Testing
We conduct soil testing for compaction, bearing capacity, and classification to support foundation design and construction. Our services include field density testing, laboratory sieve analysis, and Atterberg limits determination. Results inform earthwork specifications and ensure proper subgrade preparation for infrastructure projects.
Anchor Testing
Our team performs field and shop inspections for structural anchors, including tension and shear load testing. We verify installation compliance with AWS and ACI standards, ensuring proper embedment and torque specifications. Services cover post-installed anchors and weld quality assessments for steel connections.
