Quality Control
Quality control inspections ensure clients that their good designs translate into good projects. Full-scale investigation, laboratory and inspection services are available at Terra Tech to meet the needs of those in both the private and the public sector. In-house laboratory services result in quick turn-arounds to meet client project schedules. Utilizing methods unique to the geology and terrain of the Central Appalachian region, investigative efforts concentrate on soil classification, foundation investigation, geologic modeling and construction specification reporting.
Inspection services available include those for soil compaction/density; concrete slump, temperature and air entrainment; as well as foundation preparation techniques and nuclear density testing. Our field inspectors have been certified in required areas by the Virginia Department of Transportation Inspection Program in areas of concrete field, asphalt field and soils compaction and each are also certified for Nuclear Density Gauge Safety.
Construction inspection services are performed by staff knowledgeable in multiple disciplines including architecture, structural engineering and building design. Inspectors verify as-built configurations in conjunction with designed plans.
Among the in-house laboratory services at Terra Tech include ASTM soil testing (moisture, organic, liquid limits, plasticity and standard proctor) as well as concrete strength testing. Our lab technicians will take samples on site and transport them to the laboratory for appropriate storage and testing.
