Model: 27-WF22E02 TORSHEAR EmS
- This piece of equipment is a closed loop controlled, torsional ring shear, capable of conducting highly precise tests to measure residual shear strength parameters of soil to evaluate peak, residual angle of internal friction and cohesion of soils.
- It uses a constant shear plane and an unlimited angle of rotation or shear strain.
- Calculation of Peak and Residual shear strength as per ASTM D6467
- The residual shear strength is used to evaluate the stability of slopes that do not have a pre-existing shear surface
