DMDCPs are primarily used to determine in-place soil shear strength in road construction with CBR values from less than 0.5 to 100% and bearing values ranging from 430 to 10,800 psf. They can readily be used for depths from 30 inches to 6 foot with optional drive rods and extensions. All Humboldt DMDCPs comply with ASTM D6951 specifica- tions and come with a chart in the manual to com- pute CBR values, as well as an internet link to an Excel spreadsheet template, which automatically charts the test results. Humboldt’s DMDCPs are known for their high quality manufacturing and reliability, and, are available with either threaded connections or a quick-connect design. Both Humboldt DMDCPs feature our exclusive easy-grip hammer that pro- vides a finger grip machined into the back side of the hammer flange, which provides easy, non-slip lifting when performing a test. Humboldt DMDCPs consist of a drive hammer and steel extension shaft assembly with a 60° hard- ened cone tip attached at one end. The cone tip is driven into the pavement or sub grade by means of a sliding dual-mass hammer. The diameter at the base of the cone is 20 millimeters, which is 8 millimeters larger than that of the extension shaft. Hammer weight is 17.7 lbs and the hammer drop distance is 22.6" (574mm). Humboldt DMDCPs can also quickly convert to a single-mass unit for use in weaker soils having low CBR values or foundation evaluations by removing the outer sleeve from the dual-mass hammer.

(12kg) Foundation, Single-Mass DCP, Quick-Connect The H-4220F single-mass (10.1 lbs.), foundation DCP is used to estimate the shear strength of weak soil with a CBR less than 20 and psf less than 4000. It can be used to assess the in-place strength of undisturbed soil and/or compacted materials. It can also be used to estimate the CBR (California bearing ratio), shear strength and thickness of the material. The H-4220F is ideal for horizontal construction applications, such as shal- low foundations, footings and pavement shoul- ders. Typically it is used to assess material proper- ties to a depth of 36" (914 mm) below the surface. Also, with the use of 24" extensions this depth can be increased to 6 ft. (2m). The H-4220F comes with a 37.75" drive rod that is marked in 2" increments; a single-mass, 10.1 lb (4.5kg), sliding hammer and a reusable, hard- ened point. The drive rod and hammer are con- nected with a quick-connect pin. The Hammer drop is 22.6" (575mm) with a tolerance of 0.039in. (1.0mm). The hardened point has a 60° angle with a tolerance of 1°.

The DCP can be used effectively in augered holes in nearly all types of soils to depths of 15 to 20 ft. (4.6 to 6.1m). Components are zinc-plated and cones are heat-treated. The cone can be replaced with a Drive Tube Assembly (H-4202.7A) for col- lection of 3" x 10" (7.6 x 25.4 cm) tube samples from hand-augered holes. This penetrometer is used to determine a pene- tration resistance relationship with the standard penetration resistance of virgin soils. As with all field tools used in foundation evaluations, this method should never be used as the sole means for determining foundation conditions. It should be used in conjunction with previously established field and laboratory data, such as the split-spoon standard penetration test, density, shear strength or consolidation data.

A “dummy” vane is also included to calibrate the six 0.5 meter long extension rods for effects of soil friction. All items come in a compartmentalized vinyl carrying case with three wrenches. Vane Inspection SetH-4227 Ship wt. 15.6lb (6kg) Geovane Soil Shear Strength Tester The geovane is a hand-held instrument used for determining soil shear strength providing the reading in kPa. The device is simple to use. A 19mm vane blade is screwed into the base of the geovane and the vane is pushed into the soil. Simply rotate the geovane at a rate of 1 revolution per minute and take a reading off the face when the soil fails. The pointer stays in place when fail- ure occurs, allowing you to look up the indicated reading on the supplied calibration chart to get your reading in kPa from zero to 200. Through the use of the optional 33mm vane, readings can be measured between the range of zero to 40 kPa. Extension rods are available to increase the depth measurement capabilities of the unit. The H-4221.4 Adapter is needed to attach extension rods to the geovane. The geovane is supplied complete with a 19mm vane blade, wrenches and a carrying case.

The pocket shear vane is widely used for taking on-site measurements of excavations, including trenches and test pits. It is also used for taking readings from thin-wall or split core soil samples. It can also be used in the laboratory for evaluations. The device is widely used by safety and OSHA inspectors, back hoe operators, field testing technicians, consulting engineers, etc. The Humboldt shear vane device comes with three vanes, which are easily attached or removed from the device with the included hex-wrench. We also include a custom, heavy-duty, nylon bag for storage, which can be quickly attached to your belt with its belt clip, as well as a laminated instructions card, so you always have instructions to refer to when doing tests. The pocket shear vane can be used to gather a large number of readings including those from different failure planes without the need to pre- pare and trim samples. The device can be used on any reasonably flat surface that is slightly larger than the vane surface being used. The pocket shear vane can be used with fully-saturated, fine- grained soils with an undrained strength indepen- dent of normal pressure, including a wide range of clays from soft to stiff consistency. Readings can be made from 0 to 2.5 TSF (1 kg/cm 2 ). The dial on the unit reads in 0.05 TSF (0.05 kg/cm 2 ) increments. Pocket Shear Vane, MetalH-4212MH Ship wt. 0.8lb (0.4kg) Soil Penetrometer, Dial-Type A sophisticated pocket penetrometer offering greater capacity and sensitivity than others. Maximum value is retained on the dial until released via push-button. Inner dial scale 0 to 6.0, with 0.1 divisions in tsf and kg/cm 2 . Outer scale gives load strength over 0 to 11.0 with 0.1 divisions in kg. This reading is used with charts (included) to estimate safe bearing pressures, depending on plunger used and soil type. Values indicated relate to the standard 0.25" dia. plung- er. In addition, readings with four other included plungers (10, 15, 20, 25mm) indicate safe bear- ing pressures for foundations in consolidated soils over a range of sandy to clay-type soils.

The DSCP can be used to evaluate soil consistency by deter- mining the soil’s level of compaction and/or the bearing capacity. The DSCP is especially useful in evaluating shallow foundations and pavement sub-grades where fine-grained and soft soils are being used. The DSCP can also be used to aid technicians in quickly selecting sites for testing, as well as correlating with other tests, based on local conditions, such as standard or modified Proctor, CBR or bearing capacity. The DSCP uses a dual- rod design, which eliminates the need to correct for soil friction on the rod as the cone is pushed through the material. Penetration resistance is read directly from the cone tip and registered on the digital display. The unit comes with a 30" starter rod and a 60° cone with a 1.5cm 2 area and reads in lbs., TSF or kg/cm 2 . Digital Static Cone PenetrometerHS-4210 Ship wt. 9lbs.
