If you need to assess aggregates, stone or crushed concrete for use as capping, sub base, Type 1 or working platform material then we can help. We undertake a broad range of classification tests to asses whether material complies to a variety of specifications inducing, the 6F classes, MOT sub bases and aggregates used for other purposes such as in concrete.
Take a look below at the types of tests we offer from our central laboratory and on your site to help with aggregates assessment.
On-Site Aggregate Testing
Sampling
Obtain a representative sample for testing in the lab
Insitu Density using Sand Cone
Density tests on site for all aggregate types
Non-nuclear Insitu Density
Instant percentage compaction test results using safe cutting edge equipment.

Lab Based Aggregate Testing
Frost Heave testing
Frost heave testing to BS 812-124 for subbase and other aggregates.
Target Density
Lab Target density to compare in-situ density too
MCV Testing
MCV testing to assess moisture state of soils used in earthworks
Particle Size by Sieving
For particle sizes from 125mm to 0.063mm
LA Abrasion Testing
Aggregate resistance to degradation
Swelling Testing
Measurement of swelling under lab conditions for CBR specimens
Degree of Pulverisation
Particle strength in stabilised aggregate
Constituent Particles
Assess the amount of undesirable material such as bitumen and plaster
Laboratory CBR Testing
For determination of CBR values on remoulded material
