Numerous other earth material physical testscan be performed in our geotechnical laboratories, including rock me, soil cement and soil time mixture tests. Tests not listed can be quoted upon request. Prices are based on the assumption that samples are uncontaminated and do not contain heavy metals,acids,carcinogens and/or volatile organics which can be measured by an organic vapor analyzer or photojonization detector with a concentration greater than 50 parts-per-mittion(ppin). Quoted testing fees are based on the assumption that no protective clothing will be required to handle samples, If Level D protective clothing will be required during handling of samples(as defined in the Federal CFR Part 1910.120), then a 40%increase in fees presented in this schedule will be applied. Level C protective clothing will be a 60%increase in fees. Converse will not handle samples that require either Level B or Level A protection in our geotechnical laboratories. Contaminated samples will be returned to the client. Uncontaminated samples will be disposed of 30 days after presentation of test results. The client must disclose the source of samples. Samples imported from out of state will be incinerated after testing,in accordance with requirements of the United States Department of Agriculture. Soil samples obtained within the State of California currently designated quarantine areas will also be incinerated in accordance with the requirement of the State of California. Department of Food and Agriculture. Division of Plant Industry, Pest Exclusion, A $5.00 incineration fee will be added to each sample that is required to be incinerated in accordance with State and Federal law. Test results requiring plots will be presented in a publishable format generated from computer programs. Otherwise, raw test numbers will be presented. A minimum laboratory fee of$50.00 will be charged to present and mail test results. Beyond the standard U. S. Mail delivery, specialized transmittal will be charged at additional cost (e.g., Federal Express, UPS, etc.), Geotechnical testing does not include engineering and/or geologic review and analysis. Typical turn-around for geotechnical laboratory testing is two weeks(or roughly ten working days). To expedite test tum-around to five working days,a 50%increase in the fees in this schedule will be applied. Many geotechnical tests require at least one week to perform in accordance with the ASTM or other standard specifications. Fees presented in this schedule for relatively undisturbed direct shear,consolidation or expansion pressure tests are based on the assumption that 22-inch-diameter(2,416-inch inside diameter)brass ring samples will be provided to the geotechnical laboratory for testing. Remolded specimens will be compacted in standard 2.5-inch outside diameter brass rings for direct shear,consolidation and expansion pressure tests. All fees presented in this schedule are based on the assumption that the client will deliver samples to our laboratory at no additional cost to Converse. Materials Testing Services Compensation for laboratory testing services will be based on rates in accordance with this schedule. Costs of tests not on this schedule will be by quote and/or in accordance with our current hourly fee schedule.
