LABORATORY CBR APPARATUS-ELECTRICALLY OPERATED WITH 50 KN PROVING RING-ASTM D1883, AASHTO T193

Model Number : TM-034ASTM

This test method is used to evaluate the potential strength of sub‑grade, sub‑base, and base course material, including recycled materials for use in road and airfield pavements. The CBR value obtained in this test forms an integral part of several flexible pavement design methods.

Compliance Standards:

ASTM D1833, AASHTO T193

Significance & Use:

This test method is used to evaluate the potential strength of sub‑grade, sub‑base, and base course material, including recycled materials for use in road and airfield pavements. The CBR value obtained in this test forms an integral part of several flexible pavement design methods.

Salient Features:

  1. Electrically operated system and motorized operation
  2. Robust and compact two column frame with adjustable upper cross beam.
  3. Frame capacity - 50 Kn (5000 kg)
  4. Two speed machine (1.0mm/min for BS standard and 1.27mm/min for ASTM/EN/AASHTO Standard)
  5. Loading and Unloading can be accomplished by UP/DOWN Button or Rotary key available on the front panel.
  6. Proving ring is fitted to the upper cross beam to read the stability values.
  7. Dial Gauge (Analog indicator) is fitted to the column.
  8. Rapid adjustment of the platen is provided, which enables daylight to be taken up quickly and also close control of application of a seating load
  9. Compact bench‑mounting
