Vane Shear Apparatus (Hand)- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
This is for determining the shear strength of both remoulded and
undisturbed soils. It consists of a torque head adjustable in height to
enable the vane to be lowered into the specimen. Rotation of the vane is
by means of a hand wheel which operates a worm gear arrangement s
turning the upper end of a calibrated torsion spring. The vane shaft is
attached through the hollow upper shaft to a resettable pointer
which Indicates the angle of torque on dial graduated in degrees. The
dial reading multiplied by spring factor gives the torque. A container
is also supplied complete with a set of springs on each 01 approx. 2 kg.
