For prices: call +44 (0)118 945 3737 or Email us The VJ Tech Simple Shear Testing System is;
- Used to carry out a simple shear test to determine the shear modulus of a soil sample.
- The sample is contained within confining rings under constant volume conditions and is sheared until it is stressed to failure.
- The apparatus is mounted on a floor standing frame, has inbuilt data logging and is supplied complete with a lever loading device, hanger and sample unit.
- It also includes the Top Cap, Base Pedestal, mould and confining rings for a 70 mm (2.75") sample) and an interchangeable 50 mm (2") sample kit is available.
- Horizontal loads (up to 5kN (1124 lbf)) and Vertical Loads (up to 10 kN (2248 lbf)) are measured with S-beam load cells
- Horizontal and vertical movement is measured with linear displacement LSCT transducers.
- The controlling Clisp Studio software conforms to ASTM D6528-07.
