Its modular components, including metallic cylinders and cylindrical weights, facilitate accurate and repeatable test results. The variable speed vibrating table allows users to achieve precise soil compaction for reliable density measurements.

Adherence to International Testing Standards

Engineered to meet IS: 2720 (Part XIV) and ASTM D4253/D4254, the Relative Density Apparatus guarantees consistency and reliability in soil analysis. Suitable for granular soil determination, the equipment is widely recognized by geotechnical labs and construction industries globally for its compliance and dependable output.

FAQs of Relative Density Apparatus:

Q: How is the Relative Density Apparatus used in soil testing?

A: The apparatus is used to determine the relative density of granular soils by subjecting a soil sample to vibration and tamping in a controlled environment. The sample is placed in metallic containers, compacted using the tamping rod and vibrating table, and the resulting density is measured and compared as per standard test procedures.

Q: What is the significance of the vibrating tables variable speed control?

A: Variable speed control allows precise adjustment of vibration intensity, ensuring soil samples are compacted consistently for accurate relative density measurements. This is essential to mimic different site compaction conditions and obtain reproducible results in line with IS and ASTM standards.

Q: When should the Relative Density Apparatus be used?

A: This apparatus should be used whenever theres a need to evaluate the maximum and minimum density of granular soils for construction, research, or compliance purposes. It is particularly important in foundation and earthwork projects where granular soil behavior critically impacts stability.

Q: Where is the Relative Density Apparatus typically deployed?

A: It is commonly used in geotechnical laboratories, research institutions, soil investigation projects, and construction sites. The portable design and robust build make it suitable for both laboratory and limited field applications.

Q: What is the process for performing a density test with this equipment?

A: The process involves filling the metallic container with a specified soil sample, compacting it with the tamping rod or vibrating table, and then measuring the compacted samples mass and volume. Results are calculated manually to determine the relative density, following procedures outlined in IS: 2720 (Part XIV) or ASTM methods.

Q: How does the apparatus improve the accuracy of soil density measurements?

A: The apparatus incorporates precise measuring components and corrosion-resistant materials. Its vibrating table and standardized tamping rod enable uniform compaction, minimizing measurement errors and providing high reproducibility (0.01 g/cm accuracy).

Q: What are the benefits of using this apparatus for granular soil testing?

A: Key benefits include compliance with international standards, corrosion-resistant build, high measurement accuracy, versatility in sample size and compaction methods, and suitability for a wide variety of granular soils. The equipment is durable and designed for repeated use in demanding laboratory environments.
