Resilient Modulus Testing System
The new fully automatic Resilient Modulus Testing System (RMTS) is based on our cyclic tabletop electromechanical Triaxial test System with closed-loop control of the axial load, displacement and confining pressure. The Cyclic load simulates conditions produced by traffic. The device with different components can comply with the requirements of AASHTO T 307-99, AG:PT/T053 and AS1289.6.8.1.
As the device is based on our cyclic Triaxial test therefore can also be used to perform other dynamic and static tests such as Stress Path, cyclic strength, liquefaction, Ko- Consolidation, as well as conventional UU, CU, and CD tests with the addition of components for back pressure control and pore pressure measurement.
GEOsys software in combination with this unit performs all your tests automatically and without operator assistance during the test period.
