AZA 0853 LIQUID LIMIT DEVICE WITH COUNTER
IS 2720 (PART V), BS 1377-2 , ASTM D 4318
Specification:
Casagrande method in mechanical form is known as liquid limit method and has been in use for soil mechanics for a
number of decades. The liquid limit data of soils is useful to correlate mechanical properties of soil, such as
compressibility and lower shear strength. Liquid limit is the water content at which soil passes from zero strength to an
infinite strength, hence the true value of liquid limit cannot be determined.
For determination purpose liquid limit is that water content at which a part
of soil, cut by a groove of standard dimensions, will flow together for a
distance of 1.25cm under an impact of 25 blows in a standard liquid limit
apparatus. The soil at the water content has some strength which is about
0.17N/cm. sq. (17gms/sq.cm.) . At this water content soil just passes
from liquid state to plastic state.
It consists on a brass cup held on an adjustable bracket.
The cup can be adjusted for a fall of 1 cm and can be raised an dropped
on a rubber base of standard hardness by cam action. Complete with one
Casagrande grooving tool, one ASTM grooving tool and a height gauge
block. A counter to register the number of blows.
AZA 0858 SOIL HYDROMETER
IS 2720 (PART-VI),BS 1377-2
Specification:
Used for grain size analysis of soils where more than 10% of the material
will pass through 75 microns B.S. sieve. Manufactured from clear
transparent glass having uniform clarity throughout the upper end on which
density scale is engraved. The scale range is 0.995 to 1.030 density
(gms./cc) at 270C smallest division on the scale is 0.0005.
Note: Hydrometer for other liquids also available.
AZA 0863 STANDARD COMPACTION TEST
AZA 0868 PROCTOR NEEDLES (SPRING TYPE)
Specification:
The instrument consists of a needle attached to
a spring loaded plunger, the stem of which is
calibrated to read 0 to 40 kg division. Long
stem is graduated at every 12.5mm to read
depth of penetration and for use with needles of
larger areas . The small penetration stem is also
graduation in 12.5mm division and is used
with needles of smaller areas. Needle points
one each of 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.5 and
6.0 sq cm. And one Tommy pin is supplied.
Complete as above in a wooden carrying
case.
AZA 0869 POCKET PENTROMETER
ASTM D 1558 D 2573
This instrument is used to estimate approximate unconfined
compressive strength and the estimation to shear strength of soil
Cohesive soils can also be classified in terms of consistency
using this Penetrometer. This is a handy and convenient
instrument.
Specification:
It consists of a light weight barrel assembly with a polished and
ground steel loading piston plunger. A direct reading scale is
engraved on the piston barrel and indicates load in kg. / sq.
cm. A maximum load indicator ring is provided on the
penetration plunger. The calibrated spring is heat treated and
plated for rust resistance. The barrel diameter is 20mm and the
length 150mm. Supplied with carrying case
AZA 0872 DYNAMIC CONE PENETROMETER
A simple and robust instrument for rapid in-situ measurement of the structural properties of road pavements
! Provides fast and efficient method of obtaining information
! For continuous measurements up to a depth of 800 mm and 1,200 mm with the extension rod.
! Portable and can be accommodated in a carrying case
for pavement design. Agreement is generally good over most of the range but differences are apparent at low values of
CBR, especially for fine grained materials.
It incorporates a 8 Kg weight dropping through a height of 575 mm and a 60 deg. cone having a diameter of 20 mm.
It is supplied complete with assembly tools and weighs 20 Kg approx.
The DCP needs three operators, one to hold the instrument, other to raise and drop the weight and a technician to
record the results. The instrument is held vertically and the weight carefully raised to the handle limit and then allowed
to fall onto the anvil.
The equipment consist of the following replaceable parts
AZA 0872A Top and Bottom Rod
AZA 0872B Handle
AZA 0872C Hammer
AZA 0872D 1m Scale
AZA 0872E 60 deg. Cone
AZA 0872F Anvil
