Unconfined Compression Tester with ring

Unconfined Compression Tester with ring:

Determination of soil shear strength is essential for designing the foundation of structures, soil and soil retaining structures, soil slopes, etc., Shear strength of

soil depends on various factors and insitu soil conditions. Therefore, when laboratory tests in soil are performed to evaluate shear strength of soil, the insitu soil

conditions and other factors should be simulated for obtaining meaningful results. For example, the incoherent clean test on soil will yield the clean strength,

which can be used for finding the immediate stability of an excavation,whereas a enhance empty test with measurement of pore pressure can be used to

evaluate the effective strength parameters of soil for designing the long term stability of an earth fill dam. It is well known that the engineering behaviour of soil

depends on the effective stress and not the total stress. The effective stress can be calculated by measuring the total stress and substracting the pore water

pressure from it.

To cater to the needs of shear strength determination of soil we have range of equipments.


Unconfined Compression Tester with ring Specification:  It is designed to determine the swelling pressure developed by soil specimens moulded to desired

densities at known moisture contents, when soaked in water. The load applied to Register the bump is move on to a load caliculate an elastic shell ring through

a penetrate bump plate and a load transfer Rod. An Elastic shell ring is attached to the lead screw of hand operated load frame. A soaking tank is provided for

infuse the sample and the Bottom of the mould provided has channels and radial furrow with connecting holes. Load Frame, Hand Operated, Capacity 50 KN

Extensometer Its Types

Image
Extensometer: An extensometer is an instrument that is used to measure changes in the length of an object.It is useful for stress-strain measurements and tensile tests. Its name comes from "extension-meter". It was invented by Charles Huston who described it in an article in the Journal of the Franklin Institute in 1879. Huston later gave the rights to Fairbanks & Ewing, a major manufacturer of testing machines and scales. There are two main types of extensometers: 1.contact  2.non-contact. Contact Extensometer: Contact extensometers have been used for many years and are also subdivided into two further categories. The first type of contact extensometer is called a clip-on extensometer. These devices are used for applications where high precision strain measurement is required (most ASTM based tests). They come in many configurations and can measure displacements from very small to relatively large (less than a mm to over 100 mm). They have the advantage o...

Laboratory Vane Shear Test Of Soil

Image
Laboratory Vane Shear Test Of  Soil:  Aim: To decide the shear quality of earth soil utilizing lab vane shear contraption. Theory: In soil, sheer quality is contributed by the two properties. 1.Cohesion, and 2.An angle of interior grating In unadulterated muds the shear protection because of inward contact is insignificant. Henceforth, the total shear quality in muds is because of union (C). Apparatus: The vane shear test mechanical assembly comprises of a torque head mounted on a section. Four shear vanes are settled on a pole and the pole is settled in the lower end of a roundabout plate graduated in degrees. A torsion spring is Fix between torque head and the circular disk. An utmost pointer is given to encourage use of the Boundary of torque. As the strain showing pointer pivots when the torque is connected, it moves the most extreme pointer, abandoning it in position when the torque gets discharged at disappointment and the vane comes back to its und...
