Laboratory Services

Soil Engineering Pvt. Ltd., is one of the pioneering companies providing geotechnical services all around Nepal. We have stood strong and moved ahead with the changes that have been asked of us through the test of time. Learning and growing to provide the best and relevant services to meet our client requirements have always been our top priority.
As for the laboratory tests, we have calibrated machines, and the tests are performed following relevant standards and codes. It is important to characterize the properties of soils and rocks for analysis of bearing of capacities of foundations as well as to determine liquefaction potential of soils. We have test equipment for all the construction material tests as well.
