in particular the response of rock to changes in stress distribution, both below and adjacent to a structure or excavation. Carrying out complex and expensive in-situ tests to determine rock engineering parameters is generally uneconomical in all but the largest construction projects. By comparison, laboratory testing, combined with simple yet efficient field test equipment, offers an effective and reliable alternative. Our range of rock testing equipment has therefore been developed to help you identify, prepare and accurately and reliably test rock samples using industry standard testing techniques.www.ele.com • email: ele@eleint.co.uk • tel: +44 (0)1525 249 200tel: +44 (0)1525 249 200 • email: ele@eleint.co.uk • www.ele.com258Triaxial & PermeabilityRock MechanicsELE-Hoek Cell ADR Touch 2000 Compression MachineProduct Code: 70-2630/01Product Standards:BS EN ISO 7500-1, ASTM E4.This machine incorporates the ADR Touch Microprocessor System.

The basic cell comprises a steel body and two steel end caps which are screwed to the body of the cell when in use. The body incorporates two self-sealing couplings; one for connecting to the hydraulic pressure system, the other for de-airing the cell chamber and for the attachment of pressure measurement devices if required. Hardened and ground spherical steel pistons and two jackets of the same diameter as the specimen are supplied. ±For use with pressures up to 70 mPa ±Fast and effective specimen handling ±Accessories for permeability testingFurther Information:Supplied complete with 2 jackets and 1 pair of load spreader pads.SpecificationsWeight (kg)14.5Dia (mm)54.74Accessories:Standard Distance Piece 20 mm depth (37-4980)Support Assembly (81-0094)Pair Load Spreader Pads (70-2651)Specimen Extruder (70-2725)NX Jacket 55 mm (70-1712)Permeability of RockInvestigating the permeability or flow of water through rock subjected to high confining pressures is often necessary. The capacity of a rock mass at depth to transmit or yield water is of particular importance when designing deep structures such as tunnels.Permeability End Caps NX (One Pair) supplied with Distance BlockProduct Code: 70-1750Permeability end caps used with ELE-Hoek Cells and constant pressure systems are a cost-effective solution suited to investigating the permeability of rock at high confining pressures in the laboratory. To collect and measure the water which permeates through the rock specimen, a suitable burette such as 25-4540 is recommended. Each permeability end cap incorporates a tubing connector which accepts standard 6 mm tubing, 26-1926, used to connect the cell to the pressure system and burette.SpecificationsWeight (kg)6.2Accessories:10 ml Burette (25-4540)Nylon TubingProduct Code: 26-19266 mm outside diameter x 4 mm inside diameter.
