Soil and Rock Laboratory

American Geotechnical & Environmental Services, Inc. maintains a soil testing laboratory with a full range of testing capabilities at our Canonsburg, Pennsylvania headquarters. Established in 1997, the laboratory is operated under the supervision of our engineering group and is an essential part of our geotechnical engineering capabilities. The laboratory has completed more than 25,000 tests.
Laboratory tests are performed to determine the engineering properties of soil and rock within a controlled setting. Testing is in accordance with standard procedures, such as those specified by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), American Society of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO), Pennsylvania Test Methods (PTM), and Virginia Test Methods (VTM).
Equipment calibration and verification together with established data recording and reporting practices are part of our laboratory Quality Management System. Our laboratory accreditation is provided by AASHTO Accreditation Program (AAP).
We perform standard soil testing, chemical analysis of soil and water, and standard rock testing. If there is specialized testing that we are unable to perform in our laboratory or the samples contain hazardous materials, we have an established network of local outside laboratories to meet those demands.
American Geotechnical & Environmental Services, Inc. ensures nondiscrimination in all programs and activities in accordance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
