Quality Policy

The Quality Policy of ATMECE Material Testing Lab is committed to providing services that fully satisfy customer expectations. The organization is focused on meeting customer needs and continuously improving the effectiveness of its Quality Management System (QMS). Management routinely reviews operations to ensure that working methods , available instruments , and the skills of technicians are adequate to deliver accurate and timely results.

Objectives

  • Ensure all testing instruments are calibrated and valid for each sample tested
  • Complete sample testing within 15 working days
  • Use analytical standards traceable to certified reference materials.

Designs & Proof Checking

Conducting proof checking and peer reviews of structural designs and drawings for buildings and other structure:

  • Ensure the accuracy and quality of design outputs.
  • Reviewing soil investigation data for accuracy and relevance.
  • Assess load-bearing elements and stress management.
  • Verifying compliance with relevant codes and standards related to loadings and design procedures.
  • Performing independent 3D analysis to assess the structure’s behaviour.
  • Evaluating the safety of the structure, as well as the cost-effectiveness of member sizes and reinforcement.
