Services
Building Science
Our Building Science services evaluate structural integrity and performance using advanced diagnostics. We identify risks in existing structures and optimize designs for new projects. Clients benefit from data-driven recommendations that enhance safety, energy efficiency, and compliance with evolving standards.
Geotechnical
Geotechnical assessments analyze subsurface conditions to inform foundation design and earthwork planning. We employ field exploration and lab testing to mitigate risks like settlement or slope instability. Our solutions ensure project viability across diverse terrains and regulatory environments.
Nondestructive Examination
Nondestructive Examination uses ultrasonic, radiographic, and electromagnetic methods to detect flaws without damaging materials. We apply ASNT-certified techniques to inspect welds, pipelines, and critical infrastructure. This ensures operational safety while minimizing downtime and repair costs.
Materials Laboratory
Our accredited Materials Laboratory conducts petrographic analysis, corrosion testing, and chemical evaluations. We identify material failures and performance limitations through ASTM-standardized procedures. Clients receive actionable insights to improve product longevity and compliance in industrial applications.
Construction Materials
Construction Materials services verify material specifications during project execution. We perform field and lab testing on concrete, asphalt, and steel to ensure adherence to design criteria. This proactive quality control reduces rework risks and guarantees structural reliability for infrastructure and commercial developments.
