Soiltechnics Sdn Bhd is Malaysia’s benchmark geotechnical testing and automated engineering laboratory. We provide internationally compliant soil investigation, rock mechanics, automated triaxial testing, and geostructural monitoring trusted by top consultants and contractors.
From complex deep underground laboratory triaxial modeling to field borehole drilling and real-time civil monitoring, Soiltechnics delivers uncompromising precision.
Laboratory
Fully automated multi-station consolidation (Oedometer), motorized direct shear boxes, and computerized triaxial systems (UU, CU with pore pressure, CD).
Rock Mechanics
Comprehensive rock mass characterization for deep foundation socketing, tunneling, mining, and slope stability engineering.
Field / In-Situ
High-capacity drilling rigs, continuous undisturbed core sampling, dynamic probing, and verified subgrade verification testing across Malaysia.
Engineered by specialists who run these tests every single day. Soiltechnics designs and manufactures automated testing frames that eliminate manual dead weights, drastically reduce human error, and accelerate turnaround times.

Configure your project parameters and select required tests. Our system formats your technical scope directly into an official inquiry for immediate pricing.
Delivering defensible data for national infrastructure, major transit networks, private developments, and deep foundation engineering.
Clear answers regarding international testing standards, turnaround times, sampling protocols, and foundation verification.
Our testing protocols strictly follow British Standards (BS 1377:1990 Parts 1-9), BS EN ISO 17892, ASTM International specifications (including ASTM D2850, D4767, D7012, D3080), Australian Standards (AS 1289), and the Malaysian Public Works Department (JKR) standard specifications for roads and bridges. All equipment is routinely calibrated against traceable calibration weights and digital transducers.
Turnaround depends on the test physics: Soil Index tests (Moisture Content, Atterberg Limits, Sieve Analysis) take 2 to 3 working days. Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) and Triaxial UU tests require 3 to 4 days. Oedometer Consolidation tests typically require 5 to 10 days due to 24-hour loading increments. Triaxial CU tests with pore water pressure measurements usually require 7 to 14 days for proper saturation and consolidation. Expedited processing is available upon request.
Traditional consolidation and triaxial frames rely on technicians manually stacking cast-iron dead weights at night or odd hours, introducing shock impacts, manual timing mistakes, and inaccurate displacement readings. Soiltechnics' proprietary Unitron motorized load frames regulate load automatically with digital sensors, seamlessly advancing test stages via geoLogic software without human disturbance, delivering unprecedented data consistency.
Undisturbed soil samples (Shelby tubes / U76) must have both ends sealed with paraffin wax, securely capped, and packed vertically in cushioned crates to prevent vibration. Rock core samples must be organized sequentially in labeled wooden or rigid plastic core boxes with depth markers. Disturbed samples should be double-bagged in airtight heavy-duty polythene bags with clear water-resistant borehole and depth tags.
Yes. Soiltechnics mobilizes field testing crews throughout Peninsular Malaysia for Plate Bearing Tests (300mm, 450mm, 600mm diameter plates) for crane pad, piling platform, and subgrade stiffness verification. We also carry out Field Density Tests via the Sand Replacement method (BS 1377:Part 9) to verify earthwork compaction specifications.
