Description
Overview
This shear box has been designed to receive irregularly shaped samples with surfaces measuring up to 115 x 125 mm or cores with a maximum diameter of 102 mm. The lower half of the box is connected to two hydraulic rams which generate the shear- ing force (in both directions) and the upper half supports the ram that applies the load at a right angle to the failure surface. The horizontal and vertical actuators are connected to two manually-operated hydraulic pumps. During the test the normal stress and the shearing stress are read on two independent dial gauges calibrated in engineering units; if the measurement of the shear deformation is required an appropriate dial gauge can be mounted on the support.
