Description
H-4156
Humboldt CBR Mechanical Loading Press
Supports the following standards: ASTM D1883, AASHTO T193
The H-4156 loading press (load frame) uses a two-position mechanical jack to provide steady test speeds, as well as rapid travel of the platen for positioning of the sample.
The Mechanical Compression Machine has been designed to provide a simple and reliable machine to cover a wide range of standard laboratory tests. The loading machine meets the apparatus requirements of ASTM D 1883 and AASHTO T193 allowing a steady rate of penetration load to be applied and a load reading resolution of 10Ibf over a 10,000Ibf (44.5kN) range.
The two-speed jack design of the press allows the following tests to be carried out:
- California Bearing Ratio / Lime Bearing Ratio (CBR/LBR)
- Unconfined Compression on 1.4″ (38mm) diameter sample
- Unconfined Compression on 2.8″ (70mm) diameter sample
- Soil–Cement
- UU (Quick) Tri-axial on 1.4″ (38mm) diameter sample
- UU (Quick) Tri-axial on 2.8″ (70mm) diameter sample
- Marshall Stability and Flow Test
Physical Specification:
- Shipping weight: 120 Ibs. (54.4 kg)
- Overall height: 41 inches (1042mm)
- Overall dimensions: 18″ x 12″ x 34″ (458 x 305 x 864mm)
- Base dimension: 13-1/4″ x 8″ x 2-1/4″ (337 x 203 x 57mm)
- Maximum Load: 10,000lbf (44kN).
