Static Soil True Triaxial Testing Device
The Static True Triaxial test system is a fully automatic system used to study the behavior of soil under various compressive stress regimes on cubic samples via three independently controlled principal axes (σ1 ≠ σ2 ≠ σ3) under static loading.
The System applies vertical and horizontal independent loads by static electromechanical or optionally servo-hydraulic actuators for axis 1 and axis 2 and the cell pressure is used for axis 3.
The system includes 4 electromechanical load actuators that work in pairs and each of them has its own LVDT displacement transducer and submersible load cells and has stress or strain feedback control.
