Description and Specification for Lab Tenders
Sand Density Cone Apparatus.
Specification: The verification of the degree of compaction can be
determinate on site by a simple procedure consisting essentially in
removing and weighing a part of compacted soil and replacing in the hole
with sand by a simple apparatus recording the volume of sand and then
calculating the density of the removed soil.
We propose three models to be selected conforming to the size of grained
soils. The bigger version is recommended for gravel and coarse-grained
soil.
The set includes the Double cone, two plastic sand jar and metal base
plate except this model which is supplied with one acrylic sand
container only.
The model 6.5” dia. (165.1 mm) model can be completed with a calibrating container. See accessories.
