Quality control

Our goal is to provide the highest quality and most consistent material possible to our customers.

To ensure that we accomplish this goal, we perform the following quality control tests on our raw material and aggregate in our labs at our Gold Hill and Aquadale production facilities each week:

  • 50 raw material gradation tests

  • 85 finished product QC gradation, density and moisture content tests

  • 100 production QC gradation and density tests
  • 60 finished product QC relative density tests

  • 200 production QC relative density tests

  • 840 production QC density analysis tests

1,335 Total QC tests performed each week

We also perform a number of other tests on our aggregate to demonstrate compliance with specifications.

Consistency of Material Properties

We have statistically analyzed our relative density and gradation test results since 2003 for each size of coarse aggregate that we produce. The results, demonstrate the success of our commitment to quality and consistency.
