Direct and Simple Shear Systems
Product Code : JA-ST-9796
The Direct and Simple Shear Systems listing (SKU JA-ST-9796) groups shear testing systems for advanced geotechnical laboratories. The range covers high pressure, low pressure and unsaturated versions, dynamic simple shear systems driven by pneumatic or electromechanical actuators, and ring shear and interface shear configurations. It is supplied by JaincoLab to university and research laboratories that study the shear strength of soils under static and cyclic loading.
Specifications
Six system configurations are listed in the range:

Applications of direct and simple shear systems
Each configuration answers a different shear strength question:
- Dynamic simple shear tests on soils under cyclic loading, for earthquake and offshore foundation studies
- Ring shear tests for residual shear strength at large displacements
- Interface shear tests between soil and materials such as geosynthetics, concrete or steel
- Shear tests on unsaturated soils in research laboratories
Scope of supply and ordering
Name the configuration and the version (high pressure, low pressure or unsaturated) needed; each system in the range is quoted separately. Lead time and packing depend on the order size and are confirmed when we quote.
Frequently asked questions
Which actuators are used in the dynamic simple shear systems?
The dynamic simple shear systems in the range use either pneumatic or electromechanical actuators.
Is there a version for unsaturated soils?
Yes. The shear systems are offered in high pressure, low pressure and unsaturated versions.
Does the range include ring shear and interface shear?
Yes. Ring shear and interface shear configurations are listed alongside the simple shear systems and a shear base system.
