Dead Head Oedometer Apparatus -ASTM D2435
Dead Head Oedometer Apparatus ASTM D2435
It is used for compression test of soil, and to determine the relationship between deformation and compression of soil, to calculate the unit sediment compression index, resilient index, as well as consolidation coefficient of soil, etc. It is rigidly constructed to ensure minimum frame distortion. The frame is designed to load the specimen through a lever arm assembly and one of three alternative beam ratios as 9:1, 10:1 and 11:1.
The beam is fitted with a counter balance weight and beam support jack.
