Compare Soil and Aggregate Testing Equipment by Application
| EQUIPMENT TYPE | TEST / FUNCTION | COMMON USES | CHOOSE IT WHEN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sieves & Sieve Shakers | Particle-size distribution and gradation | Soil classification, sand and aggregate grading | Particle sizes must be measured against grading requirements |
| Soil Compaction Equipment | Moisture-density relationship and compaction characteristics | Proctor testing, road subgrades and earthworks | Optimum moisture content and maximum dry density must be established |
| Geotechnical Strength Testing Equipment | Shear strength, deformation and consolidation | Foundation design, slope stability and geotechnical investigations | Soil strength or deformation behavior must be characterized |
| Soil Permeability Equipment | Water flow and hydraulic conductivity | Drainage, seepage studies and soil permeability assessment | Water movement through soil must be evaluated |
| Aggregate Quality Testing Equipment | Specific gravity, absorption, abrasion and durability | Concrete aggregates, asphalt aggregates and road base materials | Aggregate physical properties or resistance to degradation must be verified |
| Field Density & Penetration Testing Equipment | In-place density, compaction verification and penetration resistance | Construction-site quality control, subgrades and compacted fills | Field compaction or soil resistance must be checked on site |
