AGGREGATE

Our testing evaluates mined aggregates to determine its properties, characteristics, and suitability for its intended use.  This includes borrow source, pit source and on-site source evaluations.

HOT MIX ASPHALT

The recent increased emphasis on quality in the HMA paving industry by federal, state and local government agencies has resulted in Michigan adopting a new system for quality control of materials testing in the field.  BMJ Engineers & Surveyors, Inc., assists in determining of plant-produced HMA mixtures meet the project specifications.

Our certified field technicians will observe and test placement of HMA for conformance to project specifications for:

            -Roller Patter

            -Control Strip

            -Compaction Percentage

            -Thickness Measurements

            -Laydown Temperature

            -Overlays

-Core Sampling and Testing

Our laboratory technicians will test HMA for:

            -Extracted Gradation & Percent Bitumen

            -Theoretical Maximum Specific Gravity

            -Bulk Specific Gravity

            -Core Thickness and Percent Compaction

CONCRETE

Concrete is inspected and tested to ascertain that all specified conditions meet the acceptable criteria.  This is achieved by visual, mechanical, nondestructive, or destructive methods.  Tests are performed in accordance with the American Concrete Institute (ACI), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), and American Association of State and Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) testing and inspection procedures.
