CMT - Construction Material Testing

Construction Material Testing (CMT) is usually a small part of your overall project budget, but it can save you significant time and money by avoiding or minimizing costly surprises. CMT helps you make informed decisions about the materials and methods going into your project in order to better comply with building requirements and to circumvent oversights and delays.

Shield provides CMT services for all project types, including residential, commercial, federal and general earthwork construction. Our professional engineers and certified lab technicians are trained and experienced in testing a full range of construction materials and processes. Using our in-house Soils and Materials Laboratory, we ensure our clients receive accurate and timely results.

Some of our CMT services include earthwork monitoring, soil density testing, foundation monitoring, reinforcement steel verification, concrete testing, structural steel, structural masonry and fireproofing.
