Identify the physical properties of soils

Soil characterisation is used to identify the physical properties of a material before it is used on site or assessed as part of a geotechnical investigation.

This category includes apparatus for determining liquid, plastic and shrinkage limits. These tests help laboratories classify soils, understand their behaviour in the presence of water and determine their suitability for construction, earthworks and infrastructure projects.
