Relative density of non-cohesive soils

Reference: SU271
Standards: EN 13286-5

This method, as defined in the EN standard, covers the determination of the maximum dry density and water content of non-cohesive materials when compacted using a vibratory plate compactor. Materials to which this method can be applied may contain up to 12% fines (< 0.063 mm) by mass. The maximum particle size of the materials to be tested is 80 mm. This method is applicable to mixtures used in road construction. The set consists of: - 14 L EN relative density mold with accessories - Weight overload and base with handle for the 14 L mold - Electromagnetic vibrating plate compactor with control panel - Dimensions: 762 x 762 mm - Vibration frequency: 3600 rpm - Amplitude range: 0.05 to 0.64 mm - Load capacity: up to 250 kg - Power supply: 230 V | 50-60 Hz Total weight: 290 kg
