Requesting Lab and Field Rates
Requesting Lab and Field Rates
(OP)
Hey all,
Just wondering if any of you out there would be happy to help me get a handle on what some unit rates for lab and field testing is in your neck of the woods - not to include travel time, etc. as our site lab is only 2 km from the testing locations.
Nuclear density test - per point
CBR
Standard Proctor
Specific gravity (silt/clay trace sand)
organic content
We have some, what I think, outlandish quoted prices for "extra work". The other tests (Atterbergs, Particle size - seem reasonable).
Please, if you would be so kind, identify the currency you are dealing with (Euros, USD, CdnD, Baht, Indian Rupee, etc).
I appreciate any help you may wish to offer . .

RE: Requesting Lab and Field Rates
CBR - $250 for a single point and $500 for 3 points
Specific Gravity - $80 each
Organic Content - $$80 each
Above rates are for "standard" projects. Specific projects could be more or less depending.
