Soil Testing
We conduct all physical, mechanical, and chemical testing on all geo-products (soils) for construction purposes.
Our specialized teams in soil testing are well versed with best International practices using soil testing standards like BS, AASHTO, Eurocodes, BS, ASTM, SAPEM, and local industry-applicable standards including regional manuals such as Tanzanian CML manuals and the like.
We conduct a wide range of tests on both disturbed and undisturbed soil samples.
These include;
Moisture Content, Liquid Limit & Linear Shrinkage
Plastic Limit and Plasticity Index
Particle Density Determination (Pyknometer test)
Bulk Density for undisturbed samples
Particle Size Distribution - Wet sieving
Particle Size Distribution - Hydrometer method
Compaction Test (BS Light, BS Heavy)
California Bearing Ratio Test - One point method, Three point method
Consolidation Test (Oedometer method)
Triaxial Test, Shear Box Test
Permeability Test (Constant head method)
Organic Content (Ignition loss method)
pH Value (pH meter), Compaction Test for Stabilized materials
Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) of stabilised materials
