Materials Engineering, Testing and Quality Management

We have a track record in quality control services, and provide an impressive suite of technical expertise and support to clients.

In any project, it is essential to ensure that the materials being used meet industry standards. We have established a network of accredited soil laboratories to assist with the assessment of concrete and cement-based products, asphalt paving, aggregates, structural steel, coatings, timber, and composites to support the investigations and design of a variety of Engineering disciplines.

The Materials Inspection and Testing Group conducts soil and footing inspections, reinforcing steel inspection, concrete testing with certified staff and laboratory facilities, structural steel inspection and shoring inspection. ARTISTA is qualified to conduct the necessary testing associated with geotechnical investigations of the physical/mechanical properties and characteristic behaviors of surface and subsurface earth materials. Projects include assessment of deterioration, corrosion, chemical attack, and failure of structures.  A large part of our work relates to the assessment and rehabilitation of existing structures and the effective use of new and existing materials to achieve durability and extended service life.

Quality Management ensures we coordinate activities that direct and control processes related to Quality Planning, Quality Control (QC), Quality Assurance (QA), and Quality Improvement. ARTISTA is a Quality Management specialist, able to provide comprehensive Quality Assurance and Quality Control functions for large and demanding construction projects such as airports, bridges, highways, tunnels, marine shipping terminals, commercial and industrial buildings, power plants, and other facilities.
