Dames and Moore Sampler : ZI 3083
Highly useful for sampling soils. The sample collects in to ring inside the sampler. These rings along with the specimen can be directly placed in a consolidometer cell assembly, thereby redacting the number of operations to extract the samples from a sampler, trimming to size and transferring into the ring etc. The possible disturbance in these operations is eliminated.
SPECIFICATION :
The area ratio for this sampler is 81 percent and it meets with the specifications of sub-surface exploration and sampling of soils for civil engineering purposes By M.J. HVORSLEV. Consists of a split tube accommodating ten thick brass ring 60mm x 25.4mm long. A shoe with hardened cutting edge is screwed at one end. A driving head with ball check valve is fitted at the other end. The flaps mounted inside the cutting shoe prevent the cohesionless soil falling down while lifting the sampler.
