In-situ Vane Shear Test Apparatus (AIM 138) Ref Std : IS 4434

In-situ Vane Shear Test Apparatus (AIM 138) Ref Std : IS 4434This apparatus is designed for conducting in-situ Vane hear test from the bottom of bore hole in saturated cohesive deposits, for determining their in-place shearing resistance.The equipment consists of a torque applicator assembly mounted on a base. A gear wheel, which is marked in degrees, holds a torque ring and is geared to a crank. The torque ring has a section cut from it and deforms as torque is applied and the resultant deformation is indicated by a dial gauge. A pointer is provided for registering the rotation of the vane.A detachable stand is provided to anchor the instrument. An attachment to securely hold the string of rods is provided.A calibration curve to convert the dial gauge readings to kg-cm of torque is also supplied.
