Geotechnical Engineering Gloucester Geotechnical Laboratory
Geotechnical EngineeringGloucester, Gloucestershire
UKAS Schedule 2718, issue 023 dated 10 March 2026, identifies Geotechnical Engineering’s laboratory at Centurion House, Olympus Park, Quedgeley, Gloucester, GL2 4NF, and states that testing is performed at that address only. The schedule lists defined rock strength and soil laboratory entries, including soil physical properties, oedometer, triaxial, direct-shear, permeability, plasticity, compaction, CBR and specified shear-strength tests. The provider’s current laboratory page says chemical testing is subcontracted to UKAS/MCERTS-accredited laboratories, so this guide does not present chemical testing as an in-house Gloucester schedule entry.

It lists defined rock and soil entries under stated methods. Use the schedule for the precise current scope and confirm the applicable entry directly with Geotechnical Engineering.
What to confirm with the facility
- The provider says chemical testing is subcontracted to UKAS/MCERTS-accredited laboratories. This guide does not attribute chemical testing to the Gloucester laboratory’s in-house UKAS Schedule 2718 scope.
- Confirm the exact current material, test, method, standard and edition, sample requirements, condition, range, reporting, availability, price and lead time directly with Geotechnical Engineering.

Sources and review
Arc reviewed Geotechnical Engineering’s current laboratory and contact pages and UKAS Schedule 2718, issue 023 dated 10 March 2026. The schedule supplies the exact Gloucester site, ISO/IEC 17025:2017 statement and defined rock and soil entries. The provider page says chemical testing is subcontracted to UKAS/MCERTS-accredited laboratories, so it is excluded from the in-house schedule description. Confirm the exact current scope, sample requirements and terms directly with Geotechnical Engineering.
