SOIL COMPACTION TESTING (ASTM D698)
FOR THE BRONX, BROOKLYN, MANHATTAN & WHITE PLAINS, NY AREAS

Most civil engineering projects require the use of soil as filling material. It is necessary for the soil to be compacted to a dense state so that satisfactory engineering properties can be acquired. To test the quality of your soil, our dedication team will complete a soil compaction test. Our soil division has equipment for conducting this test.

We conduct on-site soil testing in accordance with ASTM and AASHTO  standards throughout Manhattan , Brooklyn , The  Bronx , White Plains , & Westchester County , NY. This includes sampling, classifying and evaluation of soil properties for road construction, as well as excavations, foundations and earthworks. If this process is not performed properly, soil settlement can occur, resulting in unnecessary failure of the pavement or structure.

WHY IS SOIL TESTING SO IMPORTANT?

Are you preparing a site for work or for another use in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, White Plains, or Westchester County, NY area? Let the professionals at Exclusive Testing Labs Inc. ensure that the soil meets your specific requirements. Here are some vital reasons to be proactive about testing the soil at your job site: 



• Suitability: Soil testing helps determine the load-bearing capacity of the soil, which helps verify that the foundation of your building can ultimately support the weight of the structure. It can also help prevent future structural problems caused by settling, such as cracks or uneven floors. Proper testing can help you decide whether the site is suitable for your project. 
• Design Considerations: Proper planning is vital for any project. Understanding your site’s soil quality can help you design effective drainage solutions, optimize your building’s design, predict potential issues, and minimize your environmental impact. 
• Identifying Contaminants: Soil testing can detect hazardous materials or contaminants that could pose health risks or require remediation.
• Cost Efficiency: Detecting soil issues as early as possible can save money by avoiding expensive repairs and rework later in the construction process. This helps you stick to your budget.
• Compliance: New York State requires proper soil testing to keep local building projects safe and effective.
