Accurate density measurement is fundamental to the specification and quality assurance of aggregates used in road base, concrete, and pavement construction. Western Geotechnical Laboratory Services (WGLS) provides a complete range of aggregate density testing services conducted to Australian Standards, covering Bulk Density — both uncompacted and compacted (AS 1141.4), Particle Density and Water Absorption for coarse aggregates (AS 1141.6.1), fine aggregates (AS 1141.5), and via the Pycnometer Method (AS 1141.6.2). These tests give engineers, contractors, and materials specifiers the precise density and absorption data required to assess aggregate suitability and ensure compliance with project specifications.
