Commercial Material Testing Facilities
The Civil Engineering Department of Aror University offers access to commercial material testing facilities, providing advanced testing services for a variety of construction materials. These facilities are equipped to perform quality assurance and compliance testing for materials such as Concrete, aggregates, soil, Bitumen, steel, Bricks, Block, Pavers, etc. in accordance with national and international standards. The services are available for both academic and industry-related projects, ensuring reliable and accurate results for material performance evaluation.Additionally, these facilities contribute to community service by offering testing support to local industries and infrastructure projects, fostering regional development and growth.
