Insitutek carefully curate our suite of offerings to bring you the best, high quality, leading edge products and services available that you can count on for testing in situ conditions for geotechnics, earthworks and pavements. Our clients include Construction Materials Testing (CMT) businesses, civil and geotechnical consultants, transportation (including state and local government agencies), defence, energy projects, water & waste water, land developers, miners and civil contractors.
In situ testing applications include site investigation, compaction control, bearing capacity, geotechnical drilling, asphalt pavement non destructive testing, concrete pavement non destructive testing and condition assessments for rail ballast & formations, pavements and bridge decks & structures.
Our leading edge in situ testing methods for geotechnics, earthworks and pavements enable you to make better informed timely decisions compared to traditional methods:
- Faster – reduced time to test and get results (results are typically available real time so decisions can be made straight away
- More representative – focused on measuring the fundamental design parameters in the field (comparing like with like)
- Accurate and repeatable
- Non destructive – overcoming damage and rectification costs and subsequent issues (think key hole surgery vs open heart surgery)
- Without errors
- Equipment is instrumented – data is automatically and accurately recorded
- Results are machine produced – overcoming manual data recording, transposition or calculation errors and fictitious results
- GPS located and time stamped – know where and when every test is done
- Visually presented results (e.g. graphical)
- Improved safety
- Cost effective – efficient operation, typically one person
By enabling you to understand the value our products and services bring, Insitutek help our clients use modern in situ testing methods to increase construction productivity, lower cost, improve quality, reduce risk and reduce your environmental impact.
