Our main facility (Waite Park) includes the offices of all our professional and graduate engineers, project managers, engineering technicians and office support. In addition, we have three laboratories in-house: Our soil testing laboratory has updated and calibrated soil testing equipment such as automated proctor machines, sieve shakers and screens, permeability apparatus, ovens, and other equipment and supplies necessary to complete all soil tests. All personnel working in our soil laboratory are extensively trained and supervised by Chad Wolney, Vice President and the Soil Laboratory Manager. Our concrete laboratory consists of a climate -controlled steam room used to cure concrete, mortar, and grout samples cast at project sites as required by the American Society of Testing Materials (ASTM). In addition, we have two regularly calibrated and inspected compression machines used to determine the strength of the properly cured samples. The concrete laboratory technicians are directly supervised by Tyler Burkes, EIT. Our bituminous testing laboratory has a gyratory compactor, incinerator ovens, shakers, and various other equipment used to perform tests to determine the properties and verify specifications are met. The bituminous lab technicians are supervised directly by Kevin Reller, majority owner and President. Having all our personnel housed in one facility allows constant communication between our employees at the construction site, lab employees, project managers and engineers, and office personnel responsible for submission of test reports. We pride ourselves on procuring accurate test results in short order, allowing for proper project management of all the projects we provide services for. Over the past 29 years we have been in business, we have ensured quality construction on over 10,000 projects of various type including infiltration basins, housing developments, street rehabilitations, sewer and water installations, airport runways, schools, hospitals, water treatment plants, wind towers, solar farms, landfills, single-family residences, apartment building complexes, manure basins, and gravel explorations, and many commercial buildings such as this project. Although our clients vary from architects, engineers, developers, cities, counties, homeowners, and the State of Minnesota, our recommendations and services are always provided with the same goal of ensuring quality construction of all projects. PROJECT PERSONNEL All our laboratory and field technicians are extensively trained and certified by Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), American Concrete Institute (ACI), and American Welding Society (AWS). All testing is performed accurately and consistently with standards established by American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the State of Minnesota. We have reviewed
