Soil Inspection by using Dynamic Cone Penetrometer
1. Power Unit / 2. Weighting ball / 3. Control Unit / 4. Iron bar / 5. Iron bar pulling platform
Dynamic Cone Penetrometer
This Soil Inspection Machine is used to evaluate soil strength by measuring the cone moving resistance then the 30 kilograms weighting ball would be lifted for 20 centimeters in order to push an impact force through 20 millimeter iron bar and 30 millimeter diameter Cone Head including the count of falling impacts of weight ball every 10 centimeters or Blows / 10 cm.
Cone Head (Dia 30 mm.)
