Concrete Engineering Consulting and Testing Services

3 Project Phases ENGINEERING CONSULTING

 C3S, Inc. can provide concrete engineering consulting and testing services in each of the three phases of the project. Concrete engineering consulting and testing services in the Project Planning Phase can verify that planned and sourced construction materials will meet requirements. Concrete engineering consulting and testing services in the construction phase can quickly identify non-conformances and minimize cost and delay. Concrete engineering consulting and testing services in the maintenance/forensic phase are the traditional applications that identify the source of problems so that they can be corrected cost effectively.

Project Planning Phase Services

1. Planning

Verify raw materials before concrete placement to avoid delays, failures, and unnecessarycosts.

Material sourcing qualification, mix-design evaluation, and baseline cementitious-materialtesting.

Representative Construction CONCRETE Testing Projects

2. Construction

Identify non-conformance early and keep the project on schedule.

Quality-control inspections, batch-plant verification, and rapid non-destructive field testing.

Construction Phase Services

3. Maintenance & Forensic Evaluation

Identify the root cause of deterioration and determine appropriate rehabilitation options.

Petrographic analysis, failure diagnostics, structural-integrity surveys, and expert-witnessreporting.
