The Construction Materials Group provides a level of assurance to designers and construction teams that the primary building materials meet established criteria through accepted standardized testing protocol.
RJLG’s experts work with clients to minimize material replacements, reduce the likelihood of deterioration, avoid potential failures and investigate and evaluate construction materials related problems and failures. Engineering support, trained technical personnel and a team approach have been the keys to success.
There are many different methods to test for deterioration of construction materials and its causes, and RJLG is able to identify the appropriate method and reliably execute the analysis. Such testing can include:
- Aggregate testing
- Fineness testing
- Porosity testing (ASTM C-642-97)
- Rapid Chloride Testing Permeability Test (RCPT)
- Sieve analysis
- Strength testing (compressive, flexural, tensile)
