SOIL TESTING & GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION

In agriculture fields , a soil test commonly refers to the analysis of a soil sample to determine nutrient content, composition, and other characteristics such as the acidity or pH level. A soil test can determine fertility, or the expected growth potential of the soil which indicates nutrient deficiencies, potential toxicities from excessive fertility and inhibitions from the presence of non-essential trace minerals. The test is used to mimic the function of roots to assimilate minerals.

Soil testing is performed by Alpha Test House laboratory that offer a variety of specified tests, targeting groups of compounds and minerals. The advantages associated with Alpha Test House is that they are familiar with the chemistry and composition of the soils. This enables our expert technicians to recommend the tests that are most likely to reveal useful geo-technical information and productivity.

We provide Soil Analysis and Investigation Testing Services with the team of skilled professionals. Being well-equipped with all the requisite machines and technology, we cater to diversified requirements of the clients as per their varied demands. These services help to diagnose the condition of soil and come up with specific solutions.

SOIL TESTING & GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION:

Chemical Composition of Soil	Physical Test (CBR, PL, LL, Sieve Analysis etc)
Soil Permeability Test	Unconfined Compression Test
Grain size Analysis by Hydrometer	Consolidation Test
Load Bearing Capacity	Soil Penetration Test
C&D Value	Soil Investigation Test
Plate Load Test

Our Laboratory testing often check for plant nutrients in three categories:

Major nutrients: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K)
Secondary nutrients: sulfur, calcium, magnesium
Minor nutrients: iron, manganese, copper, zinc, boron, molybdenum, chlorine
The amount of plant available soil phosphorus is most often measured with a chemical extraction method
