About This Product
A triaxial test loads a cylindrical soil specimen axially while it sits in a cell under a controlled all-round pressure. The lateral pressure assembly with its foot pump sets the cell pressure, the load frame pushes the specimen at a constant rate of strain, and the proving ring and strain dial gauge give the load and the deformation. Repeating the test at several cell pressures gives the shear strength parameters of the soil. It is used in soil mechanics classes.
