A cylindrical soil specimen is laterally confined by Teflon coated low friction retaining rings, ensuring a constant cross sectional area. Vertical displacement may be prevented whilst shear force loading is applied, therefore constant volume conditions are ...
The GDS Combined Advanced Dynamic Cyclic Simple Shear (ADVDCSS) testing system is a new innovation by GDS in that it combines Simple shear and Triaxial testing without the use of a separate loadframe. The ADVDCSS uses our established technology of Electro-Mechanical ...
The GDS Shearbase System (GDSSS) is an electro-mechanical shear testing device that comes in two options, a simple shear or direct shear apparatus. The benefit of the new apparatus is that it can be upgraded to perform both tests. This can take place at the ...
<p>The variable direction cyclic simple shear system (VDCSS) allows simple shear to be performed in 2 directions, rather than the standard one. This is achieved by having a secondary shear actuator that acts at 90 degrees to the primary shear actuator. The ...
