Humboldt HM-1100A Dead-Weight Soil Consolidation Frame for Construction Material Testing
The HM-1100A provides you with reliable service day-in and day-out. The design features a rugged frame manufactured from aluminum with stainless steel vertical rods, horizontal cross arms and beam support rods. The load arm incorporates 9:1, 10:1, and 11:1 beam ratios for greater flexibility and loading weight requirements. Using the 10:1 ratio on 2.5" (63 mm) diameter samples, the system is capable of producing loads up to 48 tsf (4,597 kPa). The HM-1100A is sold without instrumentation. It can be configured as a standard unit with a mechanical dial gauge or when coupled with one of the Humboldt data loggers, the HM-1100A can be equipped with a digital indicator or with a strain transducer (LSCT).
