California Bearing Ratio Apparatus (hand Operated)

Model: ASI-886

As Per IS : 2270 (PART-XVI)

CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO TEST
 
The C.B.R. Method is used for finding the relative bearing ratio and expansion characteristics of soil of base, sub-base and sub-grade for thedesign of roads, pavements and runways.

 

Test can be made on all types of soils including sand, gravel, crushed stone etc. (Passing through 20mm IS sieve) C.B.R. test is usedextensively for selection of materials and control of sub-grades. The procedure of test is very simple. A 50mm dia. penetration piston is forced in the test soilandloads required for the penetration to penetrate different depths are recorded by means of a proving ring fixed to the penetration piston assembly and a dial gauge. Both Laboratory C.B.R and field C.B.R apparatus are avaiLable.
