• Soil-Cement Component Sets contains components required for performing unconfined compressive strength tests and meet ASTM D1633 test method. Select component sets with either analog or digital instruments. The Analog set includes a 10,000lbf Load Ring, swivel platen, and mechanical dial indicator with bracket. The Digital set includes a swivel platen, two-channel data readout, 10,000lbf load cell, and linear digital displacement transducer.
• Load & Displacement Readout Kits available in four capacities for use in determining electronic force and displacement measurements.
• Data Readouts display electronic measurements on two or four channels from Load Cells and Displacement Transducers.
• Load Cells electronically measure applied loads from 500lbf to 20,000lbf.
• Linear Variable Displacement Transducers are available in 1 and 2in ranges and used to measure soil deformation or movement.
• Load Rings are available in capacities ranging from 250lbf to 10,000lbf and used to provide analog force measurements.
• Digital Dial Indicators display movement and displacement measurements and are available in a variety of ranges and resolutions.
• Mechanical Dial Indicators are low-friction analog units for accurate displacement readings.
• 4in Swivel Platen allows proper distribution of compression load forces on soil-cement samples
• Dial Indicator/Displacement Transducer Brackets position transducers or dial indicators on the load frame.
