Unconfined Compression Tester Proving Ring Type
Product Code : JA-ST-9841
The Unconfined Compression Tester, Proving Ring Type (SKU JA-ST-9841) determines the unconfined compressive strength and the undrained shear strength of cohesive soil specimens. Load is measured mechanically with a proving ring, so the tester needs no electronic readout. The undrained strength it gives is used, for example, to check the immediate stability of an excavation and in foundation design on clay.
