Application of Vibrating Wire Equipment

Vibrating wires principal is used for a wide range of monitoring devices such as strain gauges, piezometers and load cells nowadays. It is morereliable, has less drift and allows the users to have much longer cables than other sensors. One among the prominentVW concrete testing device can be the piezometer. The vibrating wire principles are known for the long term accuracy the offer, their multi gauge system, and also various data logger system they are compatible with.

The vibrating wire strain gauge works based on the tensioned wire system. When the strain gauge is excited it vibrates with a resonant frequency, and this frequency is proportional to the length of the wire. When the wire is stretched the frequency changes proportionally to the amount of strain.

The vibrating wires strain gauge can be used in various measurement applications such as:

·         Ground anchors 
·         Rock Bolts 
·         Tie-backs 
·         Struts 
·         Arch Supports 
·         Props


To shop vibrating wires testing equipment directly from the suppliers online, one can visit the online stores offering Non Destructive Testing equipment at affordable rates. The online stores offer a wide range of non-destructive testing equipment at rates that are much lesser than the actual walk-in stores offering concrete testing equipment.

Advantages of Universal Testing Machine

The main advantage of investing in a universal testing machine is that the device can be used to test the strength, durability, and suitability for most any material. A universal testing machine has the capability to pull, compress, bend, or stretch material to its breaking point. It is primarily used by laboratories that manufacture and or mould different types of plastics. A universal testing device features one or two vertical columns mounted on a base. A second horizontal plate contains attachments that are used to hold the sample and slides up and down during stress testing samples. Dual vertical column machines are preferred by most laboratories as they can handle larger samples in terms of size and weight. Determining tensile strength is the most common test performed in a universal testing machine. This is done by holding one end of a sample in place while the other is pulled away until two sides are torn apart. The same process is used for testing flexural str

Uses for Universal Testing Machine

Universal testing machine or UTM is aptly named as it can perform various types of tensile and compression tests on different materials. There are also many different terms used to refer to a UTM that you will commonly hear in the industry, among the most popular of which are a tensile tester, bend tester, and compression tester. Some types of UTMs are stripped of some capabilities and/or are marketed to specific sectors, like texture analyzers for food, peel tester for adhesives, labels, and tapes, and top load compression tester for pipes and packaging. True UTMs can perform all of these and more. They are great multi-purpose instruments for any QC or R&D laboratory. The following are only a few common uses for UTMs: Tensile testing – One of the most common applications for UTM, a tensile test measure how strong a material is, how long it can stretch, and how stiff it is as the material is pulled apart until breaking point. Compression testing – Compr

Precautions to Be Taken While Using a Piezometer

The piezometer is a measuring device that determines pore pressures underground and liquid pressure. By determining pore pressure, you can understand the behaviour of the ground before, during, and after a construction project. Certain precautions must be taken when using a piezometer to ensure proper usage and the accuracy of results. Here are some of them: Have the right equipment – Invest in a state-of-the-art piezometer that uses a proven method of converting fluid pressures on the sensitive diaphragm into frequency signals which are ideal in the demanding environment common with civil engineering applications. Modern piezometers are capable of long distance signal transmission without degradation. They can tolerate wet wiring conditions and resist external electrical noise, too. Some manufacturers make piezometers specific for different applications, for instance, you should be able to find one with a heavy-duty body that can be b
