This test determines the rate and magnitude of consolidation of a soil specimen restrained laterally and subjected to a number of successive increments of vertical loads. In this automatic model, the incremental loading, in the load (stress) or swelling (strain) mode, is fully automatic for a practical and accurate test execution with more reliable test results.
ACE, Automatic Computerized oEdometer, consists of a small and compact load frame housing two coaxial pneumatic cylinders: the smallest one for low loads and the other for higher loads, with automatic switch off from one to the other when needed. The load is controlled by a high precision pneumatic servo-valve. Two analogue channels: one for the displacement transducer and the other for the load cell with closed loop feedback control. The test end can be programmed on a time or on a step bases. The software can control from a single PC, up to 60 ACE units enabling the operator to choose from single to multiple control
