The Laboratory Vane Shear Apparatus provided by us is used for determining the shear strength of both remoulded and undisturbed soils. Manufactured with precision, it consists of a torque head adjustable in height to enable the vane to be lowered into the specimen. Rotation of the vane is by mean of a hand wheel which operates a worm gear arrangement turning the upper end of a calibrated torsion spring. Incorporated with two rates of rotation, the vane shaft is attached with the hollow upper shaft to a reset table pointer, that indicates the angle of torque on dial graduated is degree. The apparatus is completed with a set of springs, one each of approx. 2 kg. cm., 4kg.cm., 6 kg cm and 8 kg. cm.
