Laboratory Testing Services
SGS offers in-house soils laboratory testing services located in our Farmingdale main office to supplement geotechnical explorations and consulting services for our projects. This provides reliable data in a timely manner that helps our engineers confidently deliver appropriate recommendations and engineering design solutions to our clients.
SGS is committed to provide accurate and consistent laboratory testing results in conformance with ASTM standards. This is accomplished through our use of professionally calibrated equipment, adherence to established testing protocols, ongoing quality control / quality assurance practices, and ongoing staff training. SGS offers a variety of soils lab tests that support our geotechnical engineering and design.
SGS continues to expand laboratory testing capabilities to meet the evolving needs of their projects and clients in the future.
Please note that construction materials testing is not a service that we provide.
