The apparatus has been designed to reduce the testing time

for triaxial tests, where only one compression machine is
available. With this equipment it is possible to perform the
consolidation stage of three triaxial specimens at the same
time for CU and CD tests in anisotropic conditions.

Determining the mechanical properties of soils is a very

important step to design foundations, embankments and other
soil structures. Building constructions, excavations, tunnelling
and similar applications have several effects on the subsoil
structures and these effects are successfully simulated with
Triaxial Tests where the stress-strain relation of undisturbed
soil specimen are investigated by subjecting the soil sample to
different stress levels and drainage conditions.

between moisture content and the penetration of the cone into operation on 220V, Single Phase,

for adjusting cone height in relation to the specimen

The Sand Pouring Cylinder is used for determination of the dry

density of compact, fine, medium grained soils and for layers
not exceeding 50cm thickness. A circular hole is dug into the
ground, all the soil from within it collected, weighed and dried
and the whole back filled with a standard uniform sand or fine
gravel poured from a calibrated container for calculating the
volume of the hole. The complete apparatus consists of a
Sand Pouring Cylinder fitted with Conical funnel and Shutter,
Cylindrical Calibration Container, and a Metal tray with a
central hole
Proctor Compaction Test Apparatus is a fundamental
requirement for the construction of earth fill for dams,
reservoirs, canal embankments, highways, railways and
runways. The relationship between soil moisture content and
compacted dry density is very useful for deciding construction
specifications and quality control of compacted earth fill. The
construction quality control is essential to check the density of
compacted soil achieved in the field, thereby checking its
strength.

Apparatus determines relative density of granular soils which

do not respond well to Proctor moisture-density tests.
Maximum density is determined by placing soil in special
molds and densifying using a vibrating table and surcharge.
Minimum index density is determined by loose placement in
the molds using special.
The automatic CBR test machine is designed for performing
laboratory evaluation of the CBR value of highway subbases
and sub-grade, and determination of the strength of cohesive
materials which have maximum particle sizes less than 19 mm
(3/4”). This CBR apparatus is composed of a robust and
compact two column frame with adjustable upper crossbeam
driven by an electro-mechanical ram with a maximum capacity
of 50 kn and a data acquisition and processing system

Designed to compact Proctor and CBR specimens, it ensures

an extremely uniform compaction degree, granting reliable and

The California Bearing Ratio (CBR) field test yields in–situ

strength of soils and some base course materials. The field
procedure uses a loading jack to force a piston into the soil,
noting the piston load and depth of penetration. The jack is
loaded against dead weights or a heavy piece of equipment
such as a loaded dump truck

Dynamic cone penetrometer provide quick field determinations

of soil shear strengths at depths up to 6ft (1.8m), with optional
extensions. This accurate and portable field equipment

the other hand, when the materials are contrary, the velocity is low.

285 mm samples in NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide) or in any other
solution at a specified temperature.
The equipment comprises of a conical metal mould 1.5 inch dia
at to top, 3.5 inch dia at base and 27/8 inch in height. A metal
tamping rod weighting 12 ounces and having a flat circular
tamping faces 1 inch in dia meter
used in the field to determine the quantity of soft particles in
coarse aggregate.

description

used to test the tensile and compressive properties of

material
compression, bending to tension and examine the material
in all mechanical properties
 designed for conducting torsion and twist on various metal
wires, tubes, sheet materials torque measurement is by
pendulum dyanometer system
 This machine is light, compact and simple design used to
test the fatigue strength of materials and
 used to determine the anti-impact capability of metal
materials under dynamic load
designed for measuring hardness of metals & alloys of all
kinds, hard or soft, whether roun

Tensile Strength Tester and elongation are the two prime

characteristics of most of the raw materials, whether they
are metals or non-metals such as foam, rubber, textiles,
plastic, paper or finished products such as rods, wires,
ropes, yarns, belts etcetera. These properties very often
play the major role in determining the suitability of any raw
material for any specific application. It is, therefore, of
utmost importance to determine these characteristics
accurately, conveniently, and quickl
