LABTEST Soil Testing Equipments are used for understanding and investigating the physical/mechanical properties, critical characteristic behaviors, performance of soil, unbound and hydraulically bound mixtures during compression, shear or inner liquid flow under dynamic and vibrating loading conditions. Soil characteristics are also used for deciding the most suitable method for excavating underground tunnels.

In all sections of civil engineering and particularly in soil mechanics, the engineer during the design stage must ensure that the analysis of soil properties relate directly to the relevant foundation or structure. When highway or railway earthworks, bases, sub bases and dams are constructed and sub grades are prepared, it is necessary to determine the compatibility properties of the material. Every man-made structure needs a foundation that will resist to the exposed forces, such as live loads, dead loads and wind loads. The soil tests provide the engineering firms and construction companies with the ability to predict the mechanical behavior of soils in order to design foundations that ensure resistance to forces likely to act upon it, including any unusual / extreme events such as earthquakes or hurricanes, thus providing a safe environment for people in or around the structures. For several decades, national standards have gover­ned over the production of these binders and have led, in each single producing country, to a high level of diversification.

We are the manufacturer of Sand Density Cone Apparatus. Used to determine the in-situ density of fine grained compacted soil. The test consist in digging a hole into the ground and then collect, dry and weight the sampled soil.The hole is then filled with dry sand from the cone container. The apparatus consist of a double metal cone,one plastic 5 lts jar a metal tray with centre hole.

Note:

On request 12” (305 mm) Sand Density Cone Apparatus is also supplied at an extra cost.

• Instead of steel moulds, gunmetal mould are also available.

This apparatus is used for the in place determination of the dry density of compact, line and medium grained soils and for layers not exceeding 500mm thickness. The complete apparatus consists one each of Small sand pouring cylinder,3 litre capacity fitted with conical funnel and shutter. Cylinder calibrating container, internal dia 100mm and 150mm height.

Note:

Sand pouring cylinder Medium (150mm) and Large(200mm) as per IS 2720 (P-XXVIII)

The instrument consists of a needle attached to a spring loaded plunger, the stem of which is calibrated to read 0 to 40 kg division. Long stem is graduated at every 12.5mm to read depth of penetration and for use with needles of larger areas. The small penetration stem is also graduation in 12.5mm division and is used with needles of smaller areas. And one Tommy pin is supplied. Complete as above in a wooden carrying case.

A simple and robust instrument for rapid in-situ measurement of the structural properties of road pavements Provides fast and efficient method of obtaining information For continuous measurements up to a depth of 800 mm and 1,200 mm with the extension rod.Portable and can be accommodated in a carrying case A typical test takes only a few minutes and the instrument therefore, provides a very efficient method of obtaining information which would normally require test-pits. Correlations have been established between measurements with DCP and California Bearing Ration (CBR) so that the results can be interpreted and compared with CBR specifications for pavement design. Agreement is generally good over most of the range but differences are apparent at low values of CBR, especially for fine grained materials.It incorporates a 8 Kg weight dropping through a height of 575 mm and a 60 deg. cone having a diameter of 20 mm.It is supplied complete with assembly tools and weighs 20 Kg approx.The DCP needs three operators, one to hold the instrument, other to raise and drop the weight and a technician to record the results. The instrument is held vertically and the weight carefully raised to the handle limit and then allowed to fall onto the anvil. The equipment consist of the following replaceable parts, ZI 3026A Top and Bottom Rod ZI 3026B Handle ZI 3026C Hammer ZI 3026D 1m Scale ZI 3026E 60 deg. Cone ZI 3026F Anvil
