What are the testing steps of the electric direct shear tester?
Date: 2025-07-29Read: 0
Electric direct shear testerIt is an important instrument used in the field of geotechnical engineering to determine the shear strength of soil. By simulating the shear failure process of soil under different stress conditions, the shear strength parameters of soil (such as internal friction angle and cohesion) are obtained, providing key data support for foundation design, slope stability analysis, tunnel engineering, etc.
Electric direct shear testerAdvantages:

1Efficiency: Four link design can be tested simultaneously4A single sample, with a shortened testing time compared to traditional methods1/4.

2High precision: The load indication accuracy of the microcomputer control model reaches0.01kNDisplacement measurement0.001mm.

3Safety: Electric drive replaces manual loading to avoid the impact force of weights; Overload protection function prevents equipment damage.

4Multifunctionality: Supports consolidation fast shear, slow shear, residual strength testing, and some models can be extended for permeability testing.

Test steps of electric direct shear tester:

1Soil sample preparation: Take representative soil samples, make specific sized specimens according to the specifications, place them in a shear box, and install sensors.

2Apply normal stress: Apply the first level of normal stress through a vertical loading system, and start shearing after stabilization.

3Shear test: Start the horizontal shear system and shear the soil sample at the set rate, while recording the shear force, shear displacement, and vertical deformation.

4Destruction determination: When the shear force reaches its peak or the shear displacement reaches the diameter of the soil sample1/10At that time, determine the shear failure of the soil sample and stop the test.

5Repeat experiment: change the normal stress (usually set3-4Repeat the above steps, draw the relationship curve between shear strength and normal stress, and calculatecAnd with φ.
