FIELD VANE TESTING

GEONOR H-10, H-60 and H-70
FIELD VANE SHEAR TEST APPARATUS

The field vane shear test (FVST) is the most widely used method for measuring the undrained shear strength and sensitivity of clays in-situ.

   

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.
  • ISO 9001 Certified

H-10 specifications

   

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 0-200 kPa

H-60 specifications

   

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.

H-70 specifications
