We offer a comprehensive UKAS accredited testing service for a wide range of routine geotechnical tests

Terra Tek has the capacity to undertake large scale geotechnical testing projects. Geotechnical testing includes the following:

Moisture Content	Liquid & Plastic Limits
Particle Density	Particle Size Distribution
Maximum/Minimum Density	Moisture Condition Value
One-dimensional Consolidation	Swelling & Collapse Characteristics
Unconsolidated Triaxial Tests	California Bearing Ratio
Wet and Dry Density	Durability
Dry Density/Moisture Content Relationship	Dispersibility

Terra Tek is one of the few laboratories in the UK that are accredited for Dispersibility using the pinhole method.

As well as a large capacity for material classification, compaction-related, compressibility and durability testing, we also offer the following advanced tests:

• Effective stress and Triaxial Permeability Testing (92 cells available)
• Large (300mm square) and Small (60 & 100mm square) Shear Box Testing
• Large Box Permeameter testing (300 x 300 x 1000mm)
• Unconfined Compressive Strength and Point load Index of rock core
