Soil testing

Geonor soil testing and sampling equipment provides reliable data – particularly for the study of soft clays – to support important civil engineering decisions. A range of internationally well known in-situ testing instruments is available including vane instruments from 3-30 meter.

GEONOR H-10
Field vane shear apparatus

  • Detailed field investigation of undrained shear strength and sensitivity of soft and medium stiff clays.
  • From 0-30 meters by hand jack, even through hard layers of clay, sand or silt.
  • Two vane sizes: Measurements from 0-60 kPa & 0-100 kPa.
  • Top-level accuracy, results can be used for the design of earth fill foundations and embankments.
  • Complies with ASTM standard.

GEONOR H-60
Hand-held vane tester

  • Preliminary field investigation of undrained shear strength of soft to stiff clays.
  • Quick and easy to use, low weight.
  • Direct manual boring down to 3 meters.
  • Three vane sizes: Measurements from 0-260 kPa.
  • Total weight: 3,10 kg.
H-60

GEONOR H-70
Field inspection vane tester

  • Preliminary field investigation of undrained shear strength of soft to medium stiff clays.
  • Geonor 180 degree slip-coupling system gives a better evaluation of rod-soil friction.
  • Direct penetration to 10 meters without need for pre-boring.
  • Two vane sizes: Measurement range from 0 to 80 kPa & 0-60 kPa.
