Triaxial Test (Cell & Setup)
Triaxial Cell
IS 2720 (PART XII) (stationary Bushing) For 38mm Dia
Specimen
The cell is useful for testing 38mm dia x 76mm high soil specimen. Transparent Perspex chamber with anvil and loading plunger, the cell is easily opened by releasing four nuts of the tie rods. It is leak proof up to 10kg/cm.sq. Fluid pressure. An oil plug which can also be used as an air vent is provided for introducing a thin layer of oil over water. This provides effective sealing at the plunger for long duration tests. The cell is fitted with four sleeve packed valves of no volume change type on the base. These valves are used for cell pressure, pore water pressure, drainage or back pressure. The loading plunger of the cell has dial gauge rest.

Pore Pressure Apparatus 10 KG/CM2
This apparatus is used for measuring pore water pressure and pore air
pressure in soils. This is as per the principals outlined in the book"
measurement of soil properties in triaxial tests" by A.W. BISHOP and D.J.
HENKEL. This is used as an accessories for triaxial test apparatus.
Specification
The apparatus consists of a panel for wall mounting on which are fitted 1.0 to 10kg/cm sq x 0.1kg cm. sq. a pressure gauge, bourdon tube type 15 cm dia.
Manometer: Glass u-tube manometer for measuring low positive pore pressures negative pore measures and checking zero error of pressure gauge. It is provided with a mercury trap (mercury supplied at extra cost.) Null indicator made out of clear transparent Perspex with mercury trap and cursor to indicate the mercury level. Burette: 50ml burette for measuring the volume change in the soil specimen. Pressure pump fitted with four sleeve packed valves, operated by means of a hand wheel on the end of the piston rod which is threaded through the pump cap and gives a smooth, fine adjustment of pressure.
Copper coil and water reservoir is fitted on board with complete stand assembly. The unit is tested against leaks up to 10kg/cm sq.

Dead Weight Type Oil & Water Constant Pressure System
This device is used to maintain cell pressure constant for a long
duration and the system can be used in place of conventional
constant pressure system using mercury pots where certain
minimum heights are required. Problems like de-airation of
pump, leakage of mercury etc. is eliminated in this system .
This unit is smaller in volume and can be used in mobile
laboratory also. This can maintain pressure in the cell upto
20kg/cm sq. Pressure is maintained constant in the
system by a balancing calibrated weights on a spindle
against a column of oil, operating under constant feed back.
Construction:
The system consists of an oil pump continuously driven by an electric motor during the test period. The internal components are housed in a strong compact housing. The piston on which weights are kept rotates with minimum friction. A transparent oil water vessel is provided to transmit pressure to the cell. A hand pump provided facilitates priming and to maintain constant pressure during power failure
