LABORATORY SERVICES
GSA maintains a state-of-the-art soil hydrologic and physical property testing laboratory at our Tucson, Arizona facility. We have years of experience in determining saturated and unsaturated flow properties of soils, ore, and waste material, and specialize in complete hydrologic and physical property analysis on gravelly materials. We customize and design our tests according to sample and site conditions. Projects under all of our service areas have benefitted greatly from our laboratory research and advanced methods. All laboratory services are carried out by highly trained technicians and supervised by experts in the fields of soil physics and hydrology. Additionally, our technical expertise allows us to design our own laboratory tests and provide rigorous analysis and interpretation of laboratory findings to support project goals.
