Home Test Methods Soil Testing Stress Paths Soil Test Equipment Stress Paths Soil Test Equipment In a triaxial test, a stress path is described by any change in stress state in any direction on a sample. To be able to perform a stress path test it is generally considered that control of both the axial stress and the radial stress is required. With this level of control, linear paths may be controlled of either axial stress and radial stress, p and q (deviator stress), or s and t paths. Please note: Some apparatus may require additional components or software modules to perform certain tests. The following soil test equipment can perform the Stress Paths soil test:- Hydraulic Load Frames for Rock for stress paths soil test 1000kN (1MN) / 2000kN (2MN) Static Compression Only Loadframe for stress paths soil test Environmental Triaxial Testing System for stress paths soil test Environmental Triaxial Automated System for stress paths soil test GDS Small-Strain Hollow Cylinder Apparatus for stress paths soil test GDS True Triaxial Apparatus for stress paths soil test GDS Large Diameter Cyclic Triaxial Testing System for stress paths soil test Hydraulic Load Frames for Soil for stress paths soil test Virtual Infinite Stiffness Load Frames for stress paths soil test Advanced Dynamic Triaxial Testing System for stress paths soil test GDS Enterprise Level Dynamic Triaxial Testing System for stress paths soil test Triaxial Automated System (Load Frame type) for stress paths soil test Triaxial Testing System (Automated Stress Path type) for stress paths soil test
