PCTE Offers the Testing of Cohesive Materials with California Bearing Ratio

NIDDRIE, Australia - April 29, 2019 - PRLog -- Papworths Construction Testing Equipment (PCTE), a supplier of premium construction equipment is providing CBR test machines (California bearing ratio) for testing of cohesive and base materials to determine thickness and flexibility of pavements.

PCTE, a company well known for its field equipment and non-destructive testing (NDT) now offers CBR test machines. CBR test is a direct method of classifying and evaluating soil-sub grade and base materials for flexible pavements. In simple words, the CBR test is used to determine the material properties for pavement design. This test takes place by measuring the pressure required to penetrate a sample of soil with a plunger of a standardised area. The measured pressure then gets divided by the force required to achieve an equal penetration on a standard crushed rock material. So, harder surface results in higher CBR value.

Following CBR Test machines are available in PCTE's inventory:

     CBR Test Machine with Load Ring – UTS-0852

     CBR Test Machine with Digital Readout – UTS-0854

     Automatic CBR Test Machine – UTS-0860

All CBR test (https://www.pcte.com.au/cbr-test-machines) equipment provided by PCTE are of top-notch quality, different models offer different features such as kN capacity, two travel speeds and travel readouts of the test machines. PCTE is also offering the accessories of California Bearing Ratio test machines like CBR moulds, Automatic Compactor – UTS0620, Swell Plate and Gauge, Sample Extruders, etc. These accessories assist in CBR test as different accessories provide different functions like surcharge weights, programmable counters, dial gauge, manual jack, and automated extruders.

The point that separates sCBR method from others is that this method adapts more quickly to airfield pavement design for immediate use than any other way.
