The Triaxial Shear Test Apparatus from Barkat Hitech Engineering is essential for assessing the shear strength of soil under controlled laboratory conditions, making it a crucial tool in geotechnical engineering. It comprises several key components, including a triaxial cell, a loading frame, a pressure control system, and precision measurement devices. The triaxial cell holds the cylindrical soil sample and applies confining pressure, while the loading frame enables the application of axial load, simulating in-situ stress conditions. The pressure control system carefully regulates both cell pressure and pore water pressure to ensure accurate testing conditions. Measurement devices, such as load cells, pressure transducers, and displacement gauges, capture real-time data on soil response to stress. This integrated setup allows for a detailed analysis of soil properties like cohesion, friction angle, and pore pressure behavior, supporting informed decisions in foundation design, slope stability, and other critical engineering applications.
