About the Laboratory

The construction material laboratory was established in 2007 at civil engineering department. This lab is a joint partner of the university of Isfahan central laboratory. Most of tests on the construction materials such as concrete, brick, cement, gypsum, mortar, aggregate and other common materials can be done in this lab. Additional tests which may be required are done by the central lab including, XRD (X Ray Diffraction), XRF (X Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy), NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy) and other required tests.
