Geonor Vane Tester (GVT)
Insitu Testing
- Provides an indication of in-situ undrained shear strength
- Ideal for fined grained clays, silts or other fine grained geomaterials
- Mine tailings & organic muck
- Applicable to soils with strengths less than 200kPa
- Used to evaluate rapid loading strength for total stress analysis
- Peak undrained shear strength, su, during the initial rotation
- Remoulded undrained shear strength, su, after 5 to 10 vane rotations
- Sensitivity, ST, the ratio of peak undrained shear strength to remoulded undrained shear strength
SPT
Insitu Testing
- Standard Penetrometer Testing
- Calibrated SPT hammers
- Donut Trip Hammers
- 75mm Test increments
CPT Ranger Sampler
Insitu Testing
- Take a spot sample at any depth
- Determine the soil structure in a location where CPT data is a little vague.
- Confirm the stratigraphy with physical evidence.
- Ideal for soft sensitive materials
- 600mm length x 36mm diameter
Packer Test
Insitu Testing
- Wireline IPI Packer Test
- Quick and easy use
- Digital Flow meter and multiply gauges for easy recording
- 250psi and 500psi shear pins
sCPT
Insitu Testing
- Pendulem hammers creating good constent strike
- Left and Right testing
- Tri-axial SCPT Cone made by Geomil
- Testing at any required increments
sDMT
Insitu Testing
- sDMT Equipment from Marchetti, Italy
- Testing increments from 0.20m DMT tests and 0.5m Seismic tests
- Single Hammer on Pendulem
- 0.2mm and 0.3mm membranes for different soil strengths
- Self contained trailer with 60m of rods
