Soil Testing Kits

IS : 2386 (Part I)For determining the elongation index of coarse aggregate. It consists of a steel plate on which 8 steel pins are vertically mounted with specified distance in between. This assembly is mounted on a hardwood base. Tile Flexure Strength Tester. IS : 654-1962. For the determination of breaking load of clay roofing tiles. The equipment consists of two bearing rollers and one loading roller all 40 mm dia. The centers of bearing rollers can be set at 250 mm or 270 mm. The loading is done through a double lever loading system. Maximum capacity of the machine is 2 KN. Lever ratio is 1:12. Supplied complete with 20 kg lead shot.

Meets the requirements of IS 2720 Part V and consists of a brass bowl held on an a rubber of standard hardness by can action. Rubber feet are provided to eliminate rocking while operating. Complete with one ASTM Grooving tool and height gauge. LIQUID LIMIT DEVICE With a counter same as above, but fitted with a counter to register the number of blows. LIQUID LIMIT DEVICE Motorized approximately. Same as above, but fitted with a motor geared down to give 120 rpm 

Made of steel, finished in dull chrome and with wooden handle. 

It is designed to determine the swelling pressure developed by a soil specimen moulded to desired densities at known moisture contents, when soaked in water.The load applied to restrain the swelling is transfered to a load measuring proving ring through a perforated swell plate and a load transitor bar. The proving ring is attached to the lead screw of load frame, hand operated, designed for the purpose. The load frame has a worm gear arrangement for initial setting and for subsequent volume change compensation. A soaking tank is provided for saturating the specimen and the base of the mould has channeis and radial grooves with connecting holes.

Used to cast cylindrical cement concrete specimens for compressive strength tests. These moulds are made of cast Iron. They can be easily split into two parts. The internal diameter is finished to ±0.2 mm and height within ±1 mm. Supplied complete with a base plate machined flat within ±0.02 mm. Size: 100 mm dia x 200 mm high, Cast Iron. 150 mm dia x 300 mm high, Cast Iron. 300 mm dia x 600 mm high, Cast Iron.

It is used to prepare specimens of various diameters for triaxial and unconfined compression tests. The apparatus is of cabinet type enclosing the motor coupled to a gear system with lead screw speeds as 1/32 and 1/16 in/min. Speed of disc: 24r. P. M. To run on 220/230 volts, 50 cycles, a. C.
