Materials Testing/Construction Quality Control

FMG maintains a complete materials testing laboratory
in-house.  The laboratory services support the testing
requirements of geologic materials obtained during our
drilling operations for geotechnical and geologic
assessments.  In addition, the laboratory services support
our work for construction materials and quality assurance
activities in the construction industry.  Field quality control
operations are supported by technicians and equipment
including nuclear density gauges, and concrete and
asphalt testing apparatus.  

The FMG materials laboratory is
certified by the US
Army Corps of Engineers
and has maintained this
certification for over 25 years.
