Specialty Materials Testing Services

Specialty materials testing services power safer infrastructure. At CMT Technical Services, our accredited laboratories translate raw asphalt, concrete and soil data into decisions you can trust. Consequently, owners, engineers and contractors avoid costly rework and meet specifications the first time.

Accredited Specialty Testing Labs

Because every material behaves differently, we operate three focused laboratories:

• Asphalt Binder & Emulsion – Performance-grade verification, residue recovery, mastic properties and RAP extraction.
• Concrete Petrography – Microscopic evaluation of composition, distress mechanisms and durability (ASTM C856).
• Inorganic Chemistry – pH, chloride, sulfate and heavy-metal analysis that protects structures and the environment.

What Sets CMT Apart

Our team combines seasoned materials engineers, certified technicians and industry-leading instrumentation. Therefore, each sample receives the exact method and calibration it deserves. In addition, our secure client portal keeps results, photos and QA records at your fingertips twenty-four hours a day.

• Accredited accuracy – Audited to AASHTO re:source and ASTM standards.
• Regional reach – Fixed and mobile labs serve Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Texas and Utah.
• Rapid turnaround – Digital workflows compress lab-to-field timelines; therefore, schedules stay intact.
• Action-ready reports – We pair clear data with recommendations you can act on immediately.

The Sample-to-Report Workflow

First, our logistics team arranges pickup or shipping supplies. Next, chain-of-custody forms track every movement. After that, analysts run the specified ASTM or AASHTO procedures. Finally, a registered professional engineer reviews and signs each report before it reaches you.

Questions We Commonly Solve

For example, we identify the cause of premature bridge-deck cracking, verify binder grading, confirm RAP compatibility and quantify sulfate attack potential. Moreover, our specialists collaborate with design engineers to prevent future failures.
