Field Soil Testing

GTX's experienced, field-savvy technicians provide first-rate, on-site QA/QC testing and sampling of soils so you can be confident that the job will be performed right - the first time and without delay. Our staff is Troxler certified for safe operation of nuclear density gauges. In addition, we have 40-hour OSHA safety trained technicians, allowing us to provide our services on EPA Superfund and other contaminated sites.

Whether performing field compaction-control testing, block sampling of stabilized soils for sensitive laboratory testing, field CBR testing, plate-load testing, grain size analysis or field instrumentation services, GTX is your single source for soils-related field services. We can also provide an on-site testing laboratory to support special projects.
