We understand the importance
of quality control testing for the planning phase
and construction process. Through our cross-trained
personnel and accredited laboratories we have
completed more than 30,000 construction materials
testing projects. ATL’s Construction Materials
Engineers have experience with concrete mix designs,
forensic engineering, and deep foundation
installation monitoring, including dynamic pile
testing.
