Great reminder from @USDOTFRA as summer workout routines get underway: train tracks are NOT a fitness center.
Find a running trail, walking path, or local park instead. A workout isn't worth the risk. 🚆🚫🏃🏽♀️

Underneath every strong roadway, foundation, or paved surface is a lot of testing most people never see.
One important example? Proctor testing.
Here’s a quick breakdown of what it is and why it matters in #ConstructionProjects.

Great reminder from @INDOT East Central to leave the racing to the speedways and slow it down in work zones.
Road crews, inspectors, testing teams, and drivers all make it home safely when work zones are taken seriously.

#RoadMaterialsTesting involves more than collecting samples and sending over results.
At #CTL, we continue supporting clients through documentation, reporting, agency submission assistance, and follow-up long after testing is complete.

As agriculture season ramps up, this is a great reminder from @ISDAgov to encourage crews to slow down, be patient, and give farm workers the room they need to safely move equipment around.
Because everyone has to eat!

Ever wonder why there are often “grooves” cut into concrete highways?
The process is called “#grooving” or “#tining,” and it’s one of the many small details engineered into #RoadConstruction for safety and performance.

Regular equipment calibration helps verify that testing tools are performing properly so teams can trust the data they’re receiving and make informed project decisions.
Thanks for the reminder about #EquipmentCalibration, @aashtoresource!

When it comes to #SoilTesting, more borings aren’t necessarily better.
Here’s a common misconception we hear often on #SoilEvaluation projects and the truth about the ideal number of borings.
Wondering what your sweet spot is? We can help!

We hate finding issues with #RoadWorkMaterials.
But if there’s a problem or potential specification issue, catching it early can make all the difference.
How can we help you catch issues early?
