Material Testing Cell, V. V. P. Engineering College (Testing Laboratory) was started during the year 1998-99. Material Testing Cell offers Soil Testing and Material testing over years.Material Testing cell is operated by Department of Civil Engineering.

Soil Testing includes sieve analysis, liquid and plastic limit in the soil, shear strength parameters by direct shear test, proctor compaction test, field density by core cutter method. Material testing includes various test on Construction related materials like concrete, bricks, blocks, cement, ballast Etc.

The scope of laboratory is to obtain accurate material information, it is important to obtain representative samples of the materials being tested and for that various standards are being used as per norms, followed by preparation of testing report detailing all aspects of testing parameters and recommendations and suggestions for further improvement. Most of the material properties we (or the

The laboratory is equipped with highly sophisticated instruments/equipment’s which are regularly calibrated according to Indian Standard norms.
