CBR Swelling Test Apparatus

CBR Swelling Test Apparatus is designed to monitor the swelling behavior of compacted CBR specimens and is fully compatible with standard CBR moulds. The set consists of a perforated swelling plate that allows free drainage and a tripod fitted with a dial gauge. The tripod is machined to seat securely on the CBR mould flange, ensuring that the measurement axis remains concentric with the mould during saturation and preserving reading repeatability.

CBR Swelling Test Apparatus provides flexible setup for standard laboratory diameters: 152.4 mm (6”) ASTM/AASHTO, 152 mm BS/NF, and 150 mm EN. The measurement unit comprises a low-hysteresis dial gauge with 10 mm travel range, 0.01 mm graduations, and a rigid carrier that maintains parallel alignment and resists vibration effects. The tripod head allows one-hand zeroing and pre-loading; the dial clamp screw maintains the setting during long-term soaking periods. All wetted components are manufactured with corrosion-resistant finishing; the perforation pattern of the plate ensures uniform upward water distribution across the specimen surface.
