Core sampling (Analysis)
Diamond Drilling Core Testing Service
A Client may request that they have a requirement for a concrete core to be tested to determine the strength or consistency of the material we have diamond drilled.
The results collected, can be used for safety assessment of an existing structure.
At Ed's Diamond Drilling Ltd we have the ability to have the concrete core sample(s) sent off to our local UKAS accredited testing laboratory.
This UKAS accredited laboratory is local to us and cores are delivered to the lab on the day they are core drilled by our operatives.
We can complete this service within 3 working days of taking a sample.
If only the depth of the material requires testing, we are able to complete this on site and will send all information collected by our drilling team over on a written evaluation sheet the same working day to the client.
In our local UKAS accredited Laboratory we are able to test for:
- The content of the concrete or material
- The strength of the concrete or material
- A full Chemical analysis of the material
When completing a core sample, we will arrive on site to carry out the core drilling, making sure the client has marked and numbered the area(s) where they would like us to core.
We keep this information when sending each core off to the laboratory so we know the exact area the core was taken from.
