The testing and inspection of steel, concrete, and aggregate are crucial components of quality construction, and this laboratory is dedicated to performing various tests to evaluate their properties. The laboratory specializes in evaluating the plastic and hardened properties of concrete, the hardness of metals, and the quality of rebars, which can significantly impact their performance. Additionally, the laboratory provides testing services for admixtures during the mix design process.
Steel rebars are crucial components of reinforced concrete structures, and their quality and strength are crucial to ensuring the structural integrity of such structures. This laboratory provides testing services for steel rebars using specialized equipment such as Universal Testing Machines and hardness testing equipment. These tests evaluate the strength, durability, and physical properties of the rebars, providing valuable information that construction professionals can use to ensure the safety and durability of structures.
The laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and can offer consultancy and testing services to Central Government, State Government, PSU's, and private organizations. By utilizing the laboratory's services, construction professionals can identify potential issues early on, enabling them to take corrective measures before significant problems arise, resulting in safer and more durable structures.
