Product Description

AS Standard 9kg Hammer Weight Dynamic Penetrometer
 

Measuring the strength of in situ soil and the thickness and location of underlying soil layers can be accomplished using a simple, hand-held device called the Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP). 

The Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (Shown at below) consists of two 16mm (5/8 inch) diameter shafts coupled near midpoint. The lower shaft contains an anvil and a pointed tip which is driven into the soil by dropping a sliding hammer contained on the upper shaft onto the anvil. The underlying soil strength is determined by measuring the penetration of the lower shaft into the soil after each hammer drop. This value is recorded in millimeters (inches) per blow and is known as the DCP [enetration index (DPI). The penetration index can be plotted versus depth to identify thichness and strengths of different pavement layers or can be correlated to other soil strength parameters such as California Bearing Ratio (CBR).




 

Model 16-T0012/E FEATURES:
• It is tough and robust having been well proven in the field over many years.
• Allied to the foregoing, the replaceable Shear Pins enable field repairs to be easily and rapidly carried out.
