Soils & Aggregates TestingAs the basic structural underpinning for almost all construction, soil materials play an important role in the ultimate success of a project.

Western Technologies performs in-house and on-site testing of soil materials used for subgrade, structural fills, roadways, embankments, and earthen dams, providing valuable information that assists design engineers in achieving sound engineering practices.

Our engineers and technicians sample, analyze, and classify soil materials, utilizing the most current state, federal, and industry standards and specifications. Our highly skilled geotechnical engineers interpret these results and make recommendations and/or conclusions regarding material compliance in accordance with the project requirements.

Aggregate testing is closely related to both soils and concrete test methods and is also used in concrete block. Our materials laboratories are capable of providing extensive testing for both fine and coarse aggregate including sand, gravel, crushed stone, recycled concrete, clay, shale and slag to name a few.

Western Technologies maintains a commitment to provide our clients with a technically superior testing service using state-of-the-art AASHTO accredited laboratories and highly qualified staff who deliver prompt and attentive service. Our friendly, personal approach to service ensures we build close working relationships with our clients, ultimately allowing us to better understand their testing needs.
