RELATIVE DENSITY TEST

RELATIVE DENSITY TEST APPARATUS

Model Number / Item Code: MSI 3040

Product Description:

The MSI 3040 Relative Density Test Apparatus is a comprehensive, heavy-duty industrial system engineered to determine the relative density of cohesionless, free-draining soils. Crucial for verifying structural compaction thresholds for granular foundations, embankments, and dam backfills, this equipment fully satisfies all framework requirements of IS: 2720 (Part XIV), ASTM D4253, and ASTM D4254. The workstation features a massive motorized vibratory table with a cushioned 75cm x 75cm steel deck capable of generating 3600 vibrations per minute under a 11.5 kg load. The vibration amplitude is variable across three precision-stepped stages spanning 0.05 mm to 0.65 mm to allow maximum dry density optimization. The kit comes complete with heavy-gauge calibrated unit weight moulds, guide sleeves, and high-mass surcharge weights designed to apply a steady, standardized compressive tracking force.
