Metro Testing has a team of engineers, technologists and technicians who can verify that the design properties of products meet the stipulations of standards specifications. They can follow through with quality assurance and quality control programs. They can also generate independent authoritative data for product literature and manuals. Metro Testing's experts offer field evaluation and laboratory testing of a wide range of construction materials including: Portland cement concrete; polymer concretes; shotcrete; fibre reinforced composites; plastics; soils; rock; aggregates and building stones; asphalt; metals, ceramics and insulators; and refractories, roofing compounds, sealants and coatings. Much of the work requires the development of innovative testing equipment and procedures, an area where Metro Testing's expertise is becoming well known.
