MI.GE-1002
Cone Drop Test Apparatus:-
Method to determine the resistance of geosynthetics
to penetration by steel cone dropped from a fixed height, as a simulation of
dropping sharp stones on their surface. Generally applicable to all
geosynthetics. However, the test principle may not be applicable to some
types of products. The specimen is clamped between two steel rings. A steel
cone (45° tip angle, 1000 g) is dropped from a height of 500 mm onto
the centre of the specimen. The degree of penetration is measured by
insertion of a graduated cone into the hole.
Note: - Electrically cone release facility also available
Meets: - EN-ISO-13433-2006, BS6906: Part 6
