Geotechnical Engineering Lab Equipments

Load Frame, Motorized, 50 kN (1 Speed)

Model No – MI-GEE-0270

Triaxial Setup

Triaxial setup has different main components. These components are selected to complete the setup. In the following pages specifications are given of each components. Main component requirement for this test are:

I) Load Frame
ii) Triaxial Cell
iii) Lateral Pressure Assembly
iv) Measuring Unit

Load Frames

Load frame is essential equipment for carrying out Unconfined Compression, CBR and Triaxial Shear Tests. Since very slow rates of strains are required for Triaxial Shear Tests load frame are made to suit the same. A suitable frame can be selected from a wide range of series of Load frames depending upon the type of test and the size of sample. Each load frame is provided with a standard proving ring adaptor having ½” BSF male threads to suit range.

Load Frame, Motorized, 50 kN (1 Speed)

It is a single speed load frame designed for 1.25 mm/min strain rate. It can accommodate Triaxial cells up to 100mm diameter specimen.
Loading capacity is 50kN.Operates on 220V,50Hz supply
