X.L. Yuan Peschl Shear Cell Test. Shear Tester RO-200 Automatic.
Research assignment, Report 2003.TL.6814, Transport Engineering and Logistics.


In this report the Peschl Shear Tester RO-200 Automatic is used to perform tests with two materials, sand and cement. The tester measures the shear stress, the density, the internal friction, the flow reliability of sand and cement. With these results the processes of the materials during the shear test are described. However, these results can also be used to describe material behavior in, for example, a hopper. Furthermore, a linear approximation analysis is done to describe the flow properties of sand and cement in an easy way.
