Determining the physical properties of asphalt samples under laboratory conditions.
Asphalt concrete is a composite material made from mineral aggregates, such as crushed stone and sand, and a binder to hold them together. Its high strength properties enable it to withstand significant loads and the variability of the surrounding environment.
When it comes to highways, roads, streets, car parks and footpaths, we expect asphalt pavements to be strong and durable. The quality of the pavement also has a direct impact on the safety of road users. However, it is impossible to determine the characteristics of the pavement and accurately predict its longevity by visual inspection alone. Only independent laboratory testing can determine the key parameters and ensure that the materials used meet the requirements of the design documentation and construction standards.

Expert evaluation is carried out prior to construction (to make the optimum mix design), during acceptance of the road surface and throughout the life of the roads (to assess pavement damage and the feasibility of further use).
We follow standards such as GOST, ASTM, AASHTO, ISO and EN when conducting tests.
We are the leading laboratory in Armenia for conducting tests and evaluations in the construction and road industries.
