Product Code : EL-CELE-12956
Quick answer: The Dynamic Cone Penetration Test Apparatus (DCPT) For Pavement is manufactured by Science Lab Supplies, a China-based exporter of civil engineering lab equipment and construction materials testing apparatus, and forms part of the Civil Engineering Lab Equipment catalogue used by engineering colleges and construction testing labs in civil engineering and construction materials laboratories. Applications: The Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) is an instrument designed for the rapid in-situ measurement of the structural properties of existing road pavements constructed with unbound material.
Applications:
The Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) is an instrument designed for the rapid in-situ measurement of the structural properties of existing road pavements constructed with unbound material.
Features:
- Well proven, robust design
- Portable and easy to operate
- Tests can be carried out in minutes
- Results correlate well with conventional CBR readings
- Detects layer boundaries and thicknesses
- Ideal in locations where access is difficult (such as coal holes)
Equipment detail:
The 8 kg free fall hammer is lifted and dropped through a height of 575mm. The distance of penetration of the cone tip is then recorded and the cycle repeated. Continuous measurements can be made down to a depth of approximately 850mm or when extension shafts are fitted to a maximum recommended depth of 2 meters. Where sub-pavement layers have different strengths, the boundaries can be identified and the thickness determined.
