Analysis
of Hotmix and Emulsion
Many tests are routinely available, using the most up to date
standards. The Laboratory specialises in the following areas:
Aggregates, Bituminous Materials, Asphaltic Concrete and Site
Testing Services.
Routine Hotmix, Bitumen &
Emulsion Testing
We offer a large range of aggregate testing. From aggregate
classification to asphalt mix design tests. Tests available
include: sampling, dry and wet aggregate gradation, sand equivalent,
density and absorption, sealing chip size and shape, broken
faces, cleanness, moisture content and weak particles.
Bituminous Materials
We perform routine competence testing on asphalts and binders
in pavement and motorway applications. Services offered are
quality assurance, site investigation, asphalt mix designs
(both Marshall and Gyratory) and road inspections.
Tests available include: sampling, binder content and aggregate
gradation, aggregate density and absorption, resistance to
traffic flow, maximum density and effect of moisture.
Site Testing Services
A range of on site tests can be offered. We can provide a
service of road inspection from surface texture to field density.
Services available include: sampling of aggregates, bitumen
and asphalts, surface texture by sand circle, asphalt coring,
density by nuclear gauge and road inspections.
