FAQs of Core Cutter Apparatus:
Q: How is the Core Cutter Apparatus used for soil density determination?
A: The Core Cutter Apparatus is inserted into the ground using a steel rammer, allowing the sharpened edge to cut through soil and extract a core sample. The collected soil core is measured for mass and volume, enabling accurate calculation of in-situ density and moisture content as per IS: 2720 (Part XXIX) and ASTM D2937 standards.
Q: What accessories come included with this equipment?
A: The apparatus package comprises a steel dolly for positioning, a steel rammer for driving the cutter into the ground, a removable handle for convenient transportation, and a comprehensive test report manual to guide users through the testing protocol.
Q: Where can the Core Cutter Apparatus be used effectively?
A: This equipment is ideal for field and ground soil testing at construction sites, agricultural land, and geotechnical investigation locations. Its manual operation and rugged build make it suitable for a wide range of outdoor environments across India.
Q: What process is followed during a soil test using the apparatus?
A: The testing process involves placing the cutter on the soil, using the dolly and rammer to drive it into the ground, extracting the soil core, and conducting measurements for density and moisture analysis. The entire operation is manual and does not require a power supply, making it quick and practical for field use.
Q: What are the main benefits of using the Core Cutter Apparatus?
A: Key benefits include highly accurate density and moisture measurements (0.5% accuracy), corrosion-resistant construction, sharp penetration for consistent samples, easy field assembly, and compliance with national and international standards, ensuring reliable results for soil investigations.
Q: What is the capacity and specimen size for this apparatus?
A: The equipment can collect one soil core specimen at a time, with a diameter of 100 0.1 mm and a height of 127.3 0.1 mm, holding up to 1.25 litres of soil sample per test.
