Technically, this is where it all starts and ends. Simply put, Soil Mechanics involves putting the soil under question through various tests to ascertain the behavior under varying loads, depending on the job at hand.
Soil Mechanics is of utmost importance, moreover since the very basis of strengthening a foundation depends on it! That’s where our well equipped Soil Mechanics Lab comes in.
Based in Mumbai city, our computerized Soil Mechanics laboratory is manned by able, well exposed engineers and technicians who stop at nothing to arrive at legitimate conclusions via lab tests on soil, rock and water. Adding to our service class are ISO 9001:2000 and NABL certifications which cover our laboratory testing.
