Comprehensive Testing for Concrete Support Materials
The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (ATS FoC) provides performance validation and compliance testing for ancillary material systems such as adhesives, epoxies, coatings, and sealants used with concrete and aggregates.
These materials play a critical role in the long-term durability of concrete structures. By evaluating adhesives, epoxies, coatings, and sealants, we help our clients understand how concrete systems will perform under real-world conditions. Our comprehensive testing services, whether in the lab or on the field, help ensure effective bonding, protection, repair, and flexibility of critical concrete structures.
What Standards and Methods are Used to Test Cohesive Strength?
Our experts follow ASTM D and C-series standards to evaluate how adhesives, epoxies, coatings, and sealants protect against environmental stress and accommodate movement over time.
Supporting materials such as caulk, paint, glue, and waterproofing are essential for preventing leakage, deterioration, and loss of cohesion in concrete structures. Using a combination of methods to assess their performance can directly improve concrete testing reliability.
