The TS-0300 Front Loading Oedometer is rigidly constructed to ensure minimum

frame distortion.

The frame is designed to load the specimen through a lever arm assembly and

one of three alternative beam ratios as 9:1, 10:1 and 11:1

The beam is fitted with a counter balance weight and beam support jack.

is fitted with a central spigot to ensure accurate centring of the cell under the

loading.

The fixed ring consolidation cells are manufactured from corrosion-resistant

materials and conform to the requirements of the relevant standards.

An integral water reservoir is incorporated in the cell which allows the

specimen to be inundated when required. All cells are supplied complete with

upper and lower porous disc, pressure pad and cutting (specimen) ring.

The One-dimensional Consolidation test is used to determine the consolidation

characteristics of soils of low permeability.

Tests are carried out on specimens prepared from undisturbed samples. Data

obtained from these tests together with classification data and a knowledge

of the soils loading history, enables estimates to be made of the behaviour of

foundations under load.

ORDERING INFORMATION:

Consolidation cell, dial gauge or displacement transducer and data logger,

bench, weights and calibration disc should be ordered separately.
