About This Product
In the triaxial compression test a cylindrical soil specimen is placed in a cell under all-round pressure and loaded axially until it fails. The test shows the stress-strain behaviour of the soil, which affects the settlement of foundations and the movement of retaining walls and other earth supports. Three kinds of triaxial test are usually performed to measure total and effective stress, and a pore pressure transducer records the water pressure in the specimen. Students use the results to find the strength parameters of soil. The Electronic Triaxial Shear Test Apparatus can be supplied and exported to buyers in Peru, Trinidad and Tobago, Antigua and Barbuda, Costa Rica, Palestine and Cameroon.
