Having your soil and synthetic aterials tested by an independent laboratory is iportant to deonstrate
that these construction aterials eet your standards. This type o quality assurance can satisy your design
speciications and provide a easure o due diligence that is docuented. In todays coplex environent, it
is ore iportant than ever to test aterials in order to identiy potential probles caused by anuacturing
deects, construction installation or even natural disasters. As an owner or project anager, you are concerned
not only with the long-ter viability and proitability o your acility, but keeping current construction costs as
low as possible. This eans that aterials testing ust be quick, reliable and reasonably priced.
Quality assurance
Golder has ully equipped geotechnicaland geosynthetic laboratories that testaterials quickly, accurately, and cost-eectively. With our state-o-the-artequipent and advanced technologies,we can conduct ore than 60geotechnical and geosynthetic testsallstandardized by the Aerican Societyor Testing and materials (ASTm). For
soe aterials, ASTm standards havenot yet been created. In those situations,we draw on our proessional experienceto develop testing techniques thatprovide you with a coortable level oquality assurance. When your technicalneeds go beyond noral lab testing,we also draw upon the environentaland geotechnical experience oGolder proessionals who are locatedthroughout a worldwide networko oces.

For exaple, ourlabs have ore than 60 pereabilitycells in oces worldwide with theajority located in the United States.These per cells ake use o a fowpup, expediting results aster than

GEOSYNTHETIC TESTING
The geosynthetic laboratory testsor the echanical and physicalcharacteristics o seaed andunseaed geoebrane, geotextile,geonet, geo-coposites, geogrid, andgeosynthetic clay liner aterials. As anexaple o our capability, we can test100 geoebrane sea destructive
saples in a noral business day.
Our geosynthetics lab is accreditedby the Geosynthetic AccreditationInstitute, a division o GeosyntheticInstitute (GSI), to conduct ore than40 ASTm tests, as indicated in the listto the right. The U.S. EnvironentalProtection Agency and U.S. AryCorps o Engineers recognize theGeosynthetic Accreditation Instituteas the ocial accrediting organizationor geosynthetic testing.
As active ebers o the GSI andthe ASTm D35 Subcoittee ongeo-synthetics, our lab proessionalshave a developental role in testingstandards and procedures and stayabreast o the rapid changes thatoccur in the industry.

Having your materials tested by an independent laboratory ismportant to demonstrate that these construction materialsmeet your standards. This type of quality assurance canatisfy your design specifications and provide a measure ofue diligence that is documented. In todays complex
nvironment, it is more important than ever to test materials in order to identify potential problem
aused by manufacturing defects, construction installation or even natural disasters.
As an owner or project manager, you are concerned not only with the long-term viability a
rofitability of your facility, but keeping current cost as low as possible. This means that materia
esting must be quick, reliable and reasonably priced.
