The process


Instrumentation of geotechnical structure in the field has been beneficial in evaluating the movements and failure in the structure under real condition. As well as assessing the performance of new materials and methods used in the design and construction of geostructures.

The Soil Mechanics Laboratory produces valid and accurate soil sample data from the field, including:

Water content

Atterberg limits

UU & CU Triaxial

Grain/Shieve size and hydrometer

Consolidation (Consolidation)

CBR & TSS
