To provide more convenience for our customers, we also offer computerised results-processing and dispatch facilities.

construction non-destructive tests (ndt)

Our non-destructive testing methods at CAST Laboratories allow us to assess or test concrete structures after the concrete has hardened to determine the in situ strength of the material.

The tests available range from partially localised destructive tests where the surface will be repaired after the test, to fully non-destructive tests where no damage is caused to the element. The different properties that can be assessed are strength, surface hardness, reinforcement location and concrete cover.

Our testing methods are internationally recognized and Singapore Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (SAC-SINGLAS)ISO/IEC17025accredited.

CAST Laboratories can perform the following non-destructive tests for:

construction mechanical

Mechanical testing is important for determining the fundamental mechanical properties of engineering materials that you are working with. It is critical, then, for mechanical testing to be as accurate as possible as these results are used in controlling the quality of materials for use in design and construction.

At CAST Laboratories, we perform mechanical tests for a wide range of products and materials with our state-of-the-art equipment to ensure an uncompromisingly high standard of accuracy. Our work has earned us the Singapore Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (SAC-SINGLAS) accreditation in this area.

construction geotechnical

Modern construction work on any kind of geomaterial invariably raises common geotechnical questions of soil stability, bearing capacity and deformity. On occasions like these, knowledge on rock and soil properties such as classification, deformation and shear strength are essential. We at CAST Laboratories are not only ready with the necessary expertise, but are also fully equipped to cater for all types of aggregates and soils related tests to help you determine and manage quality.

Geotechnical properties play an important role for the analysis and design of dams, embankments, foundations, and temporary and permanent earth retaining structures. A wide range of laboratory and field-testing are required to measure the right geotechnical parameters and solve geotechnical engineering problems frequently occurring at site.

CAST Laboratories is established to offer the following geotechnical testing services:

As part of a push towards making buildings safer for all, the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) in October 2010 made it mandatory for all RMC producers in Singapore to have their RMC certified by SAC certification bodies.

We are among the certification bodies who can provide this service.

The RMC product certification process is rigorous and takes into account the entire production chain.

First, RMC producers will need to show that they have qualified personnel to undertake the production of RMC products. Second, they will need to have a quality management system in place as well as proper documentation for processes, and storage facility for constituent materials used in the production of RMC. Finally, the RMC products including basic raw materials, will have to be sent for testing at accredited laboratories.

Product certification bodies like ours are assessed by the SAC based on integrity, impartiality, confidentiality and technical competence.
