Workshops
Road Infrastructure Laboratory
Description:
The activity of this laboratory lends itself to any moment of the realization of a road or airport infrastructure, from the moment of its conception to the actual execution phases.
In fact, the quality and reliability of the measurements guarantee higher standards that can be requested already in the special contract specifications and subsequently controlled on site with minimal time expenditures, useful for not slowing down site production.
