Sand Density Cone Apparatus

Sand Density Cone Apparatus

Product Code : EL-STLE-10386
Quick Answer: The Sand Density Cone Apparatus is used to verify the degree of soil compaction on site by the sand replacement method — a sample of compacted soil is removed and weighed, the hole is refilled with sand from the apparatus, and the soil's dry density is calculated from the volume of sand used. The set includes a double cone, two plastic sand jars, and a metal base plate, weighs approximately 5 kg, and conforms to ASTM D1556, AASHTO T191, and NF P94-061-3 standards.

The verification of the degree of compaction can be determined on site using a simple procedure: a part of the compacted soil is removed and weighed, the hole is then refilled with sand from a simple apparatus that records the volume of sand used, and the density of the removed soil is calculated from the results. The set includes the double cone, two plastic sand jars, and a metal base plate, except for this model, which is supplied with one acrylic sand container only.
