GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Especially designed to
measure the undrained shear strength (CU) of cohesive soils, consists of a
cylindrical body with a torsional spring and three interchangeable vanes of
different sizes used depending upon the expected strength of the soil. The
height/diameter ratio of all vanes is 2. During operation the vane is driven
for 56 cm into the soil and then turned with the handle. Deep measures (i.e.
on the top of undisturbed samples) can be obtained using the extension rod.
All stainless steel
construction. Supplied in a plastic case.
