Services
EGT is an independent research/consulting testing laboratory established to meet the field and laboratory testing needs of geotechnical as well as geoenvironmental projects. EGTs personnel have extensive experience in performing testing procedures to determine physical parameters necessary for site investigations and quality control of construction projects.
Geotechnical Testing
The Geotechnical Testing Program was established to provide conventional and specialized testing of all types of soils and geosynthetic clay liners to establish their engineering properties (physical, mechanical, and hydraulic properties) for design and construction-related purposes. Some of the testing services performed within the Geotechnical Testing Program are presented below.
​
Geo-Environmental Testing
The Environmental Testing Program was established to provide testing of contaminated soils, treated sludge, stabilized/solidified materials, and solid-waste materials. Chemical compatibility tests, leachability evaluations, stabilization/solidification and other treatability studies represent some of the testing services performed at the laboratory. Some of the testing services performed within the Environmental Testing Program are presented below.
​
Special Testing Programs
The Special Testing Program was established to provide testing of soil, geosynthetics, and manufactured soil-like materials. Hydraulic testing including hydraulic property determination and composite system filtration evaluation, and specialized client defined testing represent the testing services provided. Some of the testing services performed within the Special Testing Program are presented below.
