Be- Dynamic Cone Penetrometer
Be- Dynamic Cone Penetrometer
Model No: BE-1218
Introduction: Balaji Enterprises New Delhi Dynamic cone penetrometer with model number BE-1218 is manufactured as per industry Standards. A simple yet robust apparatus, a Dynamic cone penetrometer is basically used for the rapid in-situ measurement of structural properties of the existing road pavements which are constructed with the unbound materials. A continuous measurement can be made down to the depth of an approx. 800 mm and 1200 mm along with the extension shafts and rods. It is better suitable for the road pavements where its layers have the different strengths and hence its boundaries can be easily identified and thickness of the respective layers can also be determined. It is the fastest and efficient method of obtaining the results or information in very less duration.
Balaji Enterprises New Delhi Dynamic cone penetrometer a typical test takes only a few minutes and the instrument therefore, provides a very efficient method of obtaining information which would normally require test-pits. Balaji Enterprises New Delhi Dynamic cone penetrometer have been established between measurements with DCP and California Bearing Ration (CBR) so that the results can be interpreted and compared with CBR specifications for pavement design. Agreement is generally good over most of the range but differences are apparent at low values of CBR, especially for fine grained materials and incorporates a 8 Kg weight and cone having a diameter of 20 mm.
