CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS DIVISION

Our construction materials testing and consultancy services help bring certainty to material safety, performance and application, giving you accurate and independent information at every stage of your project.

The testing are carried out as per the International Standards and specifications as defined in BS, ASTM, BS EN, AASHTO, CIRIA, DIN, ISO etc. In certain cases, the tests can also be performed in accordance with the customer specified test methods or procedure.

Many building materials, structures, sub-assemblies and components require independent validation to the appropriate standards for safety and material performance. We work with a clear understanding of Customers' need to balance quality with speed of delivery and cost-efficiency, ensuring that they can continue to meet their obligations within the project cycle.

In addition ALC undertakes concrete investigation works using destructive and non destructive techniques to evaluate an existing concrete building, which will alert the consultant and engineers regarding any significant features that could compromise the structural performance.
