Concrete Laboratory
Introduction/background of laboratory
The concrete testing laboratory contains equipment and facilities for testing different construction materials like concrete, cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates, bricks, etc., as per IS and ASTM standards. The lab equipment is sufficiently functional to characterize the construction material testing lab, which contains equipment and facilities for testing construction materials, i.e., cement, concrete, steel, aggregate, bricks, etc., as per relevant standards. Undergraduate and postgraduate students effectively use this laboratory to test various construction materials.
