California Bearing Ratio Test (Field Type)

quantum — Wed, 08 Mar 2017 09:48:52 +0000

To know C.B.R. Values in situ, it is useful in determining the load carrying capacity in the field when in-place density and water contents are such that the degree of sturation is 80 % or greater, when material is conhensionless and coarse grained, such that it is not effected by changes in water contents and when the material has been in-place for considerable time. The loading is effected by means of a mechanical load frames which can be fixed to the under side of a truck.
Salient Features Specifications : Mechanical screw loading jack, 10,000 kg. capacity with U-bracket and swivel head. Penetration piston, 50 mm dia. threaded at the upper end. Extension rods consisting of 2 lengths 5 cm. 2 lengths 10 cm., 1 length 30 cm.,1 length 50 cm., and 1 length 100 cm., used as spacers between the proving ring and penetration piston. The lengths are machined from steel tubing. Connector set, has eight connectors for coupling the penetration piston and proving ring assembly either directly or through extension pieces. Dial gauge support of seamless pipe construction. It stands 30 cm high and 45 cm wide at the base. Provided with a quick release screw type clamp capable of sliding and locking anywhere along 2 meter length of the bridge. Supplied with annular metal weight 5 kg., 250 mm dia with 53 mm dia central hole, Slotted metal weight 5 kg., 215 mm to 250 mm dia with 53 mm dia slot, 2 Nos. Slotted metal weights, 10 kg., 215 mm to 250 mm dia with 53 dia slot 2 Nos.

CBR Testing Machine

quantum — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 14:00:34 +0000

The CBR test is used for determining the relative bearing ratio and expansion characteristics under known surcharge weights of base, sub-base and sub grade soils for the design of roads, pavements and runways. Tests can be conducted on all types of soils including sand, gravel and washed stone (passing through 20 mm IS Sieve). The CBR test is used extensively in selection of materials and control of sub grades. The procedure consists of loading soil with a circular piston, 50 mm dia face and maintaining a penetration rate of 1.25 mm/min. The load is noted and the results of test on natural or recompacted soils, in soaked and unsoaked conditions, can be compared with standard test results.

Consolidation Apparatus (Three Gang Model)

quantum — Wed, 08 Mar 2017 07:43:38 +0000

The Flexure Strength Testing are designed to test flexural strength of concrete beams. The design provide maximum rigidity throughout their working range. The load is applied by the downward movement of the piston. A spacer is for testing different size of beams. The load is indicated on a calibrated bourdon tube type load gauge of range: 0 – 100 kN x 0.5 kN (0- 1O,000 kgf x 50 kgf). The load gauge is calibrated against National Council for Cement and Building Materials Certified Proving Ring.
Flexure Testing Machines1. Light weight, rugged high strength frame2. Double action hydraulic pump3. Self-aligning roller assembly4. Hydraulic jack provided with retraction spring5. For testing beams of 100 x 100 x 500mm and 150 x 150 x 700mm6. Conforms to IS 516, BS 1881 and ASTM C 78 Two Models are available
but consists of 3 consolidation test assemblies mounted on a single frame. Complete with 3 sets of Consolidation cell assembly for 60mm dia samples and three sets of weights each giving 10 kg/sq.cm. On each sample.

Core Cutter

quantum — Wed, 08 Mar 2017 07:31:48 +0000

This is used for determination of in situ dry density of natural or compacted fine grained soil, free from aggregates. A cylindrical cutter is used to extract a sample of the soil with the help of a dolly and rammer. From the weight, density and the moisture, and dry density of the soil is ready calculated. It consists one each of: cylindrical core cutter mode of steel, 127.3mm. Long and 100mm internal diameter. Steel dolly, 25mm high with a lip to enable it to be located on top of the core cutter, rammer with detachable steel rod.
