Light-weight Manual Dynamic Penetrometer DPL

Model 16-T0012/B FEATURES:

• Portable, hand-operated equipment.

• To obtain a direct evaluation of the "in-situ" strength properties of road pavement layers: the DCP has been

correlated with CBR (California Bearing Ratio - Kleyn 1975).

• Field calibration of a portable dynamic cone penetrometer was made to determine a penetration resistance

relationship with the standard penetration resistance.

• The penetrometer has been found useful in the inspection of footing foundations and for light fi eld exploration

where the standard penetration range of limits is generally known

• One year warrantee against any manufacturing defects.
