EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of UNE 103-108 testing. It is used to determine the maximum moisture content at which the soil does not shrink after the sample is dried.
The shrinkage limit test is a laboratory test used to determine the minimum amount of water required to saturate a soil sample and prevent further volume reduction due to drying. The test is usually done in fine-grained soils such as silts and clays.
The shrinkage limit is an important parameter in geotechnical engineering as it is used to calculate the volume change of the soil due to moisture content changes. The shrinkage limit is also used to determine the plasticity index, an important property used in classifying soils according to the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS).
Overall, shrinkage limit testing provides important information about the behavior of the soil, which is crucial for many engineering applications.
EUROLAB assists manufacturers with UNE 103-108 test compliance. Our test experts, with professional working mission and principles, offer you the best service and controlled testing process in our laboratories to our manufacturers and suppliers.
