FAQs of TRI-AXIAL TEST SET:
Q: How does the TRI-AXIAL TEST SET measure soil deformation and pore pressure?
A: The test set utilizes a dial gauge or displacement transducer for deformation measurements with a fine resolution of 0.01 mm. Pore pressure is captured through integrated sensors, delivering accurate readings throughout the triaxial test process.
Q: What types of triaxial tests can be performed with this equipment?
A: This set supports Unconsolidated Undrained (UU), Consolidated Undrained (CU), and Consolidated Drained (CD) triaxial tests, allowing for comprehensive soil analysis as per IS 2720 (Part 11) and ASTM D4767 standards.
Q: When should the TRI-AXIAL TEST SET be used in a laboratory setting?
A: The equipment is ideal for laboratory environments whenever precise geotechnical properties of soil samples need to be determined, such as during research projects, site investigation, and construction quality assessment.
Q: Where can the TRI-AXIAL TEST SET be installed and operated?
A: Its moderate footprint (approx. 800 x 400 x 1200 mm) and robust build allow it to be set up in most geotechnical or soil mechanics laboratories. Export-ready packaging makes it suitable for use by institutions globally.
Q: What is the process for operating the TRI-AXIAL TEST SET?
A: After sample installation, users can select automatic or manual test modes via the microprocessor-based panel. Fluid pressure is applied either by compressed air or dead-weight, with all critical parameters monitored digitally or analogically as required.
Q: What are the key benefits of using this triaxial test set?
A: Key benefits include highly accurate test results, compatibility with multiple sample sizes, enhanced safety features, user-friendly interface, and compliance with major international standards. Minimal maintenance and robust construction also increase its longevity and efficiency in laboratory use.
