SOIL & AGGREGATE
AITL experts can perform #asphalt, soil and aggregate mechanical test methods which include Moisture Density Relationship (e.g., Proctor test) to Bearing Ratio (CBR) of Soils and Friability to Mechanical & Chemical Soundness of aggregates, Bitumen Extraction to Marshall Stability Test. Some other tests are mentioned below:
- Field Density Test/ Compaction Test
- Sieve Analysis
- Liquid Limit
- Standard & Modified Proctor
- Specific Gravity
- Clay Lumps & Friable Particles
- California Bearing Ratio
- Soundness
- Los Angeles Abrasion & More
