Front Loading Oedometer
Front loading oedometer
This test determines the rate and magnitude of consolidation of a soil specimen restrained laterally and subjected to a number of successive increments of vertical loads.
The oedometer consists of a rigid aluminium alloy frame to avoid any distortion under load. The lever arm assembly is supported in precision self-aligning bearings and has three hanger positions for 9:1, 10:1 and 11:1 ratio. The oedometers fit with linear potentiometric transducers, can be connected to Data acquisition unit.
Max loading (using 11:1 lever arm ratio): 1848 kg, corresponing to 9.061 MPa (92.40 kgf/cm²) on a 20 cm² specimen (50.47 mm diameter)
Overall Dimensions:500*200*750 mm (height without hanger*width*length)
Weight: 21 kg
