Testing Laboratory
Our laboratory is located adjacent to our offices at 1701 State Avenue
in Kansas City, Kansas, and has approximately 3000 square feet of floor
space. It is equipped to accomplish the following tests of soil, rock,
concrete and asphalt at the laboratory or in the field, as required:
• Pressuremeter Tests
