Temperature Controlled Cyclic Triaxial Testing System
The temperature-controlled Soil triaxial testing systems are designed and manufactured to perform stress path triaxial testing on soil under different temperature conditions. Many tests require temperature controlling of specimens either for high temperatures or for low temperatures. This requires new designed system which would be able to avoid any temperature gradient in samples during tests and make a unique constant temperature condition during tests.
The system can be customized in a variety of test conditions e.g. Static or Cyclic loads with electro-mechanical or hydraulic loading actuator, Low cell pressure or high- cells pressure up to 5MPa, Low-temperature tests or/and high-temperature tests which all can be configured together to meet the test requirements. The temperature-controlling system can control the temperature of the sample in the range of -20 °C to +200 °C.
