Dimensions | 464×546 x1206 mm |
Weight (approx.) | 55 kg |
Description:
- The LoadTrac II load frame provides compression/extension testing for a number of geotechnical tests that must have accurate control of the rate of dis-placement during loading.
- With acces-sories, the unit can perform uncon-fined compression, CBR, and triaxial shear phase testing.
- The base unit includes a stepper mo-tor, lead screw, vertical tension rods and crosshead, displacement trans-ducer, electronic controls and network communications.
- Versions of the unit are available to test loads up to 90 kN (20,000 lbs.).
- Displacement rates can be set to any value between 0.00003 and 15 mm per minutes (0.000001 to 0.6 inches per minute).
- The base unit can run in stand-alone mode without a computer.
- It includes built-in data acquisition and display capability.
- Sensor readings are dis-played in Sl or English units and stored in memory.
- Optional software running in Win-dows® 2000, XP, Vista, 7 completely automates the test, reducing the data and preparing test results.
Applicable Test Standards:
- ASTM D-2166, AASHTO T-208 Unconfined Compression Testing of Soils
- ASTM D-1663 Compressive Strength of Moulded Soil-Cement Cylinders
User Benefits:
- Choose capacity to fit user needs from 22, 45 and 90 kN (5,000, 10,000 and 20,000 lbs.) models
- Total automation of data collection and reporting of test results
- Prepare tables and plots of report quality within minutes of completing a test
- Generate columns of data for easy reduction using your own spreadsheet software
- Ability to access and control the unit over a computer network using Geo-Net option
