Compaction & Bearing Capacity Tests
Civiltech Quality Control Lab Private limited offers a complete suite of tests to evaluate compaction quality, soil strength, and
load-bearing capacity essential for embankments, highways, pavements, foundations, and infrastructure development.
These tests ensure that soils meet engineering requirements for density, stability, and performance under load.
Services
We provide the following major compaction and bearing capacity tests:
- Proctor Compaction Test (Standard & Modified): Determines optimum moisture content (OMC) and
maximum dry density (MDD) for proper soil compaction.
- California Bearing Ratio (CBR Test): Used for pavement design to assess the load-bearing
capacity of soils and sub-base materials.
- Safe Bearing Capacity (SBC Testing): Determines the maximum load that soil can safely support
without settlement or failure.
- Permeability Test: Measures how easily water passes through soil to evaluate drainage
characteristics.
- In-situ Density Tests: Includes Sand Replacement and Core Cutter methods for field compaction
control in embankments and highways.
- Field Moisture Content: Used to verify compaction conditions on construction sites.
- Sub-base / Embankment Suitability Evaluation: Verifies if the material meets compaction,
moisture, and strength requirements for road construction.
