Plate Loading Test Set

This test method is used to estimate the bearing capacity of a soil under field loading conditions for a specific loading plate and depth of embedment (ASTM D1194). It is also used for load tests of soil and flexible pavement components for use in evaluation and design of airport and highway pavements.

TS-1200 Plate Loading Test Set consists of a 200 kN capacity piston assembly and hydraulic hand pump, pressure transducer, LPI battery operated digital readout unit, 2.4 m long datum bar, 3 pcs. 25 mm travel x 0.01 mm digital dial gauges with dial supports, 300 mm and 450 mm dia. loading plates.

TS-1201 Plate Loading Test Set Set consists of a 500 kN capacity piston assembly and hydraulic hand pump, pressure transducer, LPI battery operated digital readout unit, 2.4 m long datum bar, 3 pcs. 25 mm travel x 0.01 mm digital dial gauges with dial supports.

TS-1220 Plate Loading Test Set consists of a 200 kN capacity piston assembly and hydraulic hand pump, pressure transducer, 4 channel static unilogger data acquisition unit, 2.4 m long datum bar, 3 pcs. 25 mm x 0.001 mm linear potentiometric displacement transducers and their supports, 300 mm and 450 mm dia. loading plates, converter DC 12 V to DC 24 V and software.

TS-1221 Plate Loading Test Set consists of a 500 kN capacity piston assemly and hydraulic hand pump, pressure transducer, 4 channel static unilogger data acquisition unit, 2.4 m long datum bar, 3 pcs. 25 mm x 0.001 mm linear potentiometric displacement transducers and their supports, 600 mm and 750 mm dia. loading plates, converter DC 12 V to DC 24 V and software.

When there is a need for test set TS-1200 and TS-1220, 600 mm and 760 mm dia. loading plates or for test set TS-1201 and TS-1221 300 mm and 450 mm dia. loading plates should be ordered separately.

All test sets supplied complete with 1.5 m long flexible hose with quick release coupling.
