Job Application
Compliance with following International Standards:
ASTM D6951
Applications:
The Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) is an instrument designed for the rapid in-situ measurement of the structural properties of existing road pavements constructed with unbound material.
Features:
- Well proven, robust design
- Portable and easy to operate
- Tests can be carried out in minutes
- Results correlate well with conventional CBR readings
- Detects layer boundaries and thicknesses
- Ideal in locations where access is difficult (such as coal holes)
Equipment detail:
The 8 kg free fall hammer is lifted and dropped through a height of 575mm. The distance of penetration of the cone tip is then recorded and the cycle repeated. Continuous measurements can be made down to a depth of approximately 850mm or when extension shafts are fitted to a maximum recommended depth of 2 meters. Where sub-pavement layers have different strengths, the boundaries can be identified and the thickness determined.
