About This Product
In soil testing, a load frame holds the specimen and presses on it so that the applied load can be measured together with the deformation it causes. The same type of frame serves several tests, including the California bearing ratio test, the triaxial test and the unconfined compression test, and the frame capacity and loading speed are selected to match the test being run. Students read the load and deformation values and use them to calculate the strength of the soil.
