Driving Growth of Soil Field Testing Equipment Market

According to a newly published market research intelligence by Future Market Insights, tightening regulatory norms set for testing the compatibility of building and construction materials with soil are predominantly driving the growth of soil field testing equipment market. Estimated to see moderate revenue growth in coming years, the approximately US$ 900 million global market for soil field testing equipment is expected to merely approach the valuation of a billion dollar towards 2020.

Continuous developments in infrastructure is a prime factor that is expected to fuel the growth of the global soil field testing equipment market. Soil plays a key role in all the areas of civil engineering. Engineers must analyse and ensure the property of soil during the design stage, since soil is the foundation of any infrastructure.

When highways, bases, sub-bases, railway tracks and dams are constructed, it is important to check the compatibility of the material with soil, and this is where soil field testing equipment is used. Before constructing a structure, engineers extract, examine and test a soil sample using soil field testing equipment. Soil testing is one of the most important functions in civil engineering and geotechnical testing for the design of embankments, pavements and others.

Soil field testing equipment provides data on soil mechanics and material common to the soil, which includes clay, silt, gravel, sand, rock and others. Soil testing equipment is important as testing is a critical parameter in determining the characteristics of soil during the construction process.

Some of the most widely used soil field testing equipment is soil moisture testers, soil penetrometers, soil density, pocket shear vane sets, soil classification tests, soil resistivity testing, soil density volumeters, digital pH meters and others. Soil field testing equipment market is regulated by various stringent standards set by National Bureau of Standards and others.

For Instance, Soil density test is done to meet the requirements of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards. These standards need to be followed by the construction companies and ultimately boost the demand for soil field testing equipment and are driving the global soil field testing equipment market.
