The main geotechnical tests carried out in our MTIC InterCert laboratory can be divided into the following test areas:

Geotechnical tests

Particle size analysis, Atterberg limits, AASHTO compaction test, CBR bearing capacity index, shear tests, triaxial tests, edometric tests, permeability tests.

On-site tests

Plate-load tests carried out using test methods in accordance with Italian, Swiss and German standards, Density calculation, Calculation of the load-bearing capacity index – CBR, Load tests on poles, Removal of materials by core drilling

Aggregates

Particle size analysis, sand equivalent, shape and flattening index, shell content, methylene blue test, Micro-Deval wear resistance, Los Angeles fragmentation resistance, density and absorption, smoothness and abrasion test, potential reactivity to alkalis, petrographic analysis.

Tests on soils and rocks

Laboratory is authorized by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport to carry out tests and certify the soil and rock - sector A - Circular 7618/STC -.
