Introduction
ITC Labs lab offer best quality testing services for the road materials. Road materials can be categorised as bitumen, pavement material, concrete, Aggregate, Bitumen, Job Mix Formula, Concrete Design Mix, Core Cutting, bitumen content determination, BI test, BBD test & Pile integrity test, Bridge load test etc. Bitumen is the residue or by-product when the crude petroleum is refined. A wide variety of refinery processes, such as the straight distillation process, solvent extraction process etc. may be used to produce bitumen of different consistency and other desirable properties. Depending on the sources and characteristics of the crude oils and on the properties of bitumen required, more than one processing method may be employed.
List of Material covered are as follow:-
- Complete Bitumen Testing as per IS:
- Emulsion testing
- CRMB Testing
- Job Mix Formula (DBM, BC, WMM, BM & GSB etc.)
