AML is an independent third-party aggregate testing laboratory in Qatar. We offer specialized personnel, technology, and testing services for a variety of materials, including gabbro, limestone, and aggregates. Our tests cover properties such as grading, crushing value, soundness, sulfate content, chloride content, sieve analysis, and plasticity index.
Aggregates comprise the majority (66% to 78%) of the material used in concrete and asphalt. For optimal performance, aggregates must be properly graded, hard, sound, durable, and free from chemicals, clay coatings, or other foreign materials that could impede bonding with the binding material. Testing is essential to ensure aggregates meet these criteria. With our experienced staff and state-of-the-art equipment, we are committed to providing the most reliable and accurate results.
Numerous tests are available for both fresh and hardened concrete, with slump, air content, unit weight, and compressive strength being the most common. Aaminah Metallurgical Laboratory (AML) offers a comprehensive suite of independent concrete testing services to ensure concrete quality. We conduct a wide range of on-site and off-site tests for both fresh and hardened concrete, with experienced technical staff available to perform on-site testing of fresh concrete.
Soil is a fundamental building material, and every construction project begins with it. Thorough soil testing is crucial to ensure it can adequately support the project's structural loads. In today's fast-paced construction environment, real-time testing during soil placement is essential. AML understands the need for timely results and provides qualified personnel trained to use the latest density testing equipment, delivering critical compaction data promptly.
Geotechnical investigations gather data on the physical characteristics of soil and rock at a site. This information is crucial for designing earthworks and proposed structures, as well as supporting the repair of existing structures or earthworks damaged by subsurface issues.
We utilize both destructive and non-destructive testing methods on metals and non-metals, including composites, polymers, elastomers, and resins. These tests determine material properties, performance, strength, durability, and corrosion resistance, ensuring safety, compliance, and fitness for purpose in their intended applications.
We are a global leader in high-volume routine mechanical testing, such as tensile, impact, and hardness testing, for both metals and polymers. We also offer highly specialized mechanical testing, including fatigue testing, fracture mechanics, crack metal testing, crack propagation testing, creep testing, and corrosion testing. Our chemical analysis services utilize OES, XRF, ICP, EDS, MS, and other analytical techniques.
AML provides advanced solutions in metals technology, offering critical testing and consultation support throughout all stages of metal processing and product development. Our laboratory deliver comprehensive, interdisciplinary services for the development, processing, characterization, and testing of all materials.
Understanding how materials perform under various stresses is crucial, and material properties testing provides this essential insight. This testing is invaluable for R&D projects, preventing field failures, and proactively addressing potential issues. Because materials vary significantly, guesswork is unacceptable.
AML helps evaluate and understand material properties, offering valuable insights into virtually any material characteristic and type. We provide a broad range of material properties testing services, specializing in metals, advanced composites, polymers, ceramic composites, and many other materials.
AML's comprehensive chemical analysis services provide invaluable insights into the composition, content, and quality of your materials. Our global laboratories and advanced techniques ensure personalized testing and reporting, giving you confidence in your materials' integrity.
We offer comprehensive chemical analysis services for a wide range of materials, from traditional metals and alloys to advanced polymers and composites.
