Pore Pressure Apparatus.
This apparatus is used for measuring pore water pressure and pore air
pressure in soils.
This is as per the principals outlined in the book
"Measurement of soil properties in triaxial tests" by AW Bishop and
D.J.Henkel. This is used as a naccessory for triaxial test apparatus.
Salient
Features Specifications : The apparatus consists of a panel for wall
mounting on which are fitted -1.0 to 20 kg/cm2 x 0.1 kg/cm2 a pressure
gauge, Bouron tube type 20 cm dia. Manometer: Glass U-tube manometer for
measuring low positive pore pressures negative pore pressures and
checking zero error of pressure gauge. It is provided with a mercury
trap (Mercury supplied at extra cost). Null indicator made out of clear
transparent perspex with mercury trap and cursor to indicate the mercury
level. Burette : 50 ml Burette for measuring the volume change in the
soil specimen. Pressure pump fitted with four sleeve packed valves.
Operated by mean of a hand wheel on the end of the piston rod which is
threaded trough the pump cap and gives a smooth, fine adjustment of
pressure. Copper coil and water reservoir. The unit is tested against
leaks upto 10 kg/cm.sq.
