MACKINTOSH PROSPECTING KIT
This equipment is particularly useful for initial site investigation work in remote areas. The kit is capable boring to a depth 10 - 12 mtrs depending on ground conditions. The use of specially designed extension rod couplers reduces borehole friction to a minimum, permitting easy operation to considerable depth.
Equipment consists of:
- 12 boring rods 1 mtr long with 12 couplers
- 2 pipe wrench and 1 tap wrench
- Core tube adaptor and clay core tube
- Driving head and clearing rod
- Long and short driving point
- Auger tool and standard core tube
- Lifting/driving tool and hammer
- Die nut and hand tap
All equipment supplied in a strong wooden box
Weight: 45 kg approx.
(DYNAMIC CONE PENETROMETER (DCP
Dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) TRL = TRANSPORT RESEARCH LABORATORY, UK.
This portable hand operated equipment is designed to obtain a direct and rapid in-situ evaluation of the structural strength of road pavement layers constructed with unbound materials.
The DPC Penetrometer results can be compared and interpreted with CBR (California Bearing Ratio) as per sperimental Kleyn 1982 studies.
The test is performed with continuous penetrations at approx. 800 mm depth with max. depth of 2 m by using extension rods.
The equipment consists of:
- Drop sliding hammer 8 kg weight, falling height of 575 mm
- Impact anvil with driving rod
- Penetration rod with conical 60° point and 20 mm dia.
- Bar wrench, spanners, accessories.
- Wooden carrying case
Dimensions (in case): 1210 x 340x190 mm approx.
Weight: 29 kg
FIELD INSPECTION POCKET VANE TESTER
Used to determine the shear strength of undrained (CU) cohesive soft soils, to firm non-fissured soils on site.
The instrument consists of a T-handle cylindrical body where a torsional spring is housed, and three interchangeable vanes of different sizes, used depending to the expected strength of the soil to be tested.
The vane is inserted into the soil for 60 mm approx., and the max. torque value is measured on a collar attached to the shaft.
Measuring range: 0 - 200 kPa
The unit, all stainless steel made, is supplied complete with three vanes dimensions (height x dia.) 16 x 32, 20 x 40, 25, 4 x 50, 8 mm, extension rod 500 mm long, tools, carrying case.
Dimensions: 500 x 300 x 100 mm
Weight: 4 kg approx.
