Key facts
- Exact Leeds laboratory
- Parkside Lane, Dewsbury Road, Leeds LS11 5SX, United Kingdom. This is the schedule’s Laboratory location and the owner’s Head Office & Geotechnical Laboratory.
- Current register and dated scope
- UKAS Testing Laboratories 1265 is listed for Soil Engineering Geoservices. The downloaded ISO/IEC 17025:2017 schedule is issue 037 dated 27 August 2025. Accreditation is limited to its specified Laboratory rows.
- External samples and enquiries
- The owner explicitly accepts soil, rock and aggregate samples from external clients. The local contact page publishes 0113 2711111 and enquiries@soil-engineering.co.uk. Scheduling/reporting in AGS and PDF formats and sample collection are owner-described services to arrange.
Testing capabilities
Soil classification and physical properties
Laboratory rows cover water content, density, particle density and particle-size distribution by specified sieving, hydrometer and pipette methods. They also include liquid/plastic limits, plasticity index and linear shrinkage. Selected BS EN ISO 17892 and BS 1377 rows have distinct editions and techniques, so agree the precise method and sample preparation.
Soil compaction and bearing ratio
The Leeds Laboratory scope includes dry-density/water-content relationships using specified rammer and vibrating-hammer methods, moisture condition value, chalk crushing value and California Bearing Ratio including soaked CBR. BS 1377 and the separate TRL Report 273 MCV procedure are listed. These are laboratory rows, with method equipment or rammer masses not general capacity claims.
Soil strength, consolidation and permeability
Specified Laboratory rows include one-dimensional consolidation, swelling/collapse, hydraulic-cell consolidation and permeability, constant-head and triaxial-cell permeability, unconfined compression, shear box and residual ring shear. Triaxial rows distinguish undrained, consolidated-undrained, consolidated-drained and separately documented multistage procedures. Confirm drainage, pore-pressure or volume measurement and the exact standard or in-house method.
Rock physical properties and strength
The exact Laboratory scope lists point-load strength/anisotropy, water content, porosity/density, slake durability, uniaxial compressive strength and deformability with Young’s Modulus and Poisson’s Ratio. It also lists Schmidt rebound hardness, CERCHAR abrasivity, direct shear and indirect tensile strength by the Brazil test. Use the specific ISRM or ASTM D7625-10 row, without turning Brazil testing into generic metallic tensile testing.
Aggregate magnesium sulphate testing
The selected aggregate scope is the magnesium sulphate test under BS EN 1367-2:2009 at the Leeds Laboratory. This single physical-test row does not establish a broad aggregate chemistry, weathering programme or environmental chamber capability. Agree the material and required procedure.
Equipment and published limits
| Specification | Published value | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| Owner-described digital laboratory systems | AGS scheduling, AGS4/PDF reporting and automatic test data logging | The explicit Leeds page describes bespoke automatic logging for one-dimensional consolidation, triaxial compression and shear-box data. This is qualitative owner equipment/systems information, without apparatus numbers, load limits, accuracy or numerical throughput. |
| Owner-described sample and core storage | Controlled testing/storage and a purpose-built Core Store and Logging Facility | The Leeds page describes temperature-controlled testing facilities, digital chain of custody and temperature/light-controlled core preparation and photography. Its storage quantities are not numerical test capacity, chamber dimensions, equipment counts or accreditation for every advertised service. Agree specimen and storage arrangements. |
Access and contact
Use the exact Leeds owner contact route, 0113 2711111 or enquiries@soil-engineering.co.uk, to discuss soil, rock or aggregate samples, a quote or a visit. The laboratory page explicitly accepts external clients and AGS scheduling with AGS4/PDF reporting. The owner also describes sample collection. Agree the method/edition, sample size and condition, preparation, reporting, delivery and timing. The UKAS register separately lists 0113 3859169, and the issue 037 schedule lists Mr P Rodgers and paul.rodgers@soil-engineering.co.uk as dated schedule contacts, without a verified present role.

Standards and accreditation
- UKAS 1265 exact Laboratory scope
- The current register lists Soil Engineering Geoservices and links schedule 1265, ISO/IEC 17025:2017, issue 037 dated 27 August 2025. Page 1 assigns Parkside Lane Leeds to Laboratory, and all selected rows use that code. Broad owner service descriptions are separate from exact accredited methods.
- Selected soil standards and separate procedures
- Examples include BS EN ISO 17892-1:2014+A1:2022, -2:2014, -3:2015, -4:2016, -5:2017, -8:2018, -10:2018 and -12:2018+A2:2022. The schedule separately lists BS 1377-2:2022 and specified 1990 parts, TRL Report 273 for MCV and two documented K H Head-based multistage triaxial methods. Confirm the exact row, without combining editions or procedure conditions.
- Rock and aggregate methods
- Rock rows use the stated ISRM suggested-method editions, with ASTM D7625-10 for one CERCHAR row and separately specified ISRM abrasivity, shear and Brazil-test rows. The aggregate magnesium sulphate row uses BS EN 1367-2:2009. These examples do not imply every procedure in a standard or general tensile testing.
- Owner wording qualified by exact current scope
- The owner Leeds page still says BS EN ISO 17892 accreditation is in progress. The freshly retrieved register and issue 037 schedule supply the verified exact ISO 17892 rows used here. Owner history about in-situ accreditation and broader service advertising are not transferred to this guide’s local Laboratory scope.
What to confirm with the facility
- Confirm the material, exact standard/edition or documented in-house procedure, specimen preparation, drainage, pore-pressure/volume measurements and desired report. The five groups are selected exact Leeds Laboratory rows, not a complete accreditation schedule or generic metallic tensile scope.
- Confirm sample dimensions, mass, quantities, present apparatus limits and turnaround. Published method rows, rammer masses, automatic logging and storage quantities do not establish equipment counts, combined numerical capacity or guaranteed throughput.
- Keep Laboratory testing separate from owner-advertised national in-situ services and specialist geochemical subcontractors. Other offices and the registered office do not inherit Leeds methods, equipment or accreditation. Arrange the precise service and delivery route.
- Provide the project, material and sample condition, quantity, requested method/edition, test parameters, acceptance criteria, reporting format and preferred dates. Agree handling, preparation, delivery, access, programme and costs with the provider.

Sources and review
Reviewed by Arc on 1 October 2026 in Europe/London using six fresh official captures. Exact UKAS register 1265 and seven fully viewed pages of schedule issue 037 dated 27 August 2025 establish Parkside Lane, Dewsbury Road, Leeds LS11 5SX and Laboratory allocation. Five concise groups retain selected soil classification, compaction/CBR, strength/consolidation/permeability, rock properties/strength and aggregate magnesium sulphate rows with exact methods/editions. Generic imported tensile wording is replaced by material-specific rock Brazil-test scope and the wider verified local soil/rock/aggregate selection. Current owner contact 0113 2711111 and enquiries email, external sample acceptance, collection and AGS4/PDF reporting are supported. Register phone 0113 3859169 remains distinct, with Mr P Rodgers and his email explicitly dated to issue 037 and no present-role inference. Current-served owner ISO 17892-in-progress wording is qualified against exact UKAS rows. Automatic logging and controlled storage remain qualitative, without numeric storage-to-test limits, apparatus counts or combined capacity. National in-situ work, geochemical subcontractors, other offices and registered-office identity remain separate. Original titles, canonicals, JSON-LD and article metadata timestamps, PDF title/creation/modification dates, full-page images, extraction/rendering/font configuration/stderr and all bodies/headers are preserved. Homepage and schedule originals match retained discovery bytes, without treating fresh retrieval as a new publication or scope date. Directory overrides clear imported postcode coordinates.
