Caisson Method for Measuring Sensor KKB-PC Caisson cutting-edge reaction meter

KKB-PC Caisson cutting-edge reaction meter 10MPa~25MPa

The KKB-PC is a transducer to measure subgrade reaction force (bearing force) acting on the caisson cutting edge. It is installed so that the sensing area of the transducer faces the bottom of the cutting edge and measures the reaction force when settled and fixed.

Post-yield Strain Gauge YEF series

YEF series Post-yield strain gauge

These gauges are applicable to the measurement of large strain up to 10 to 15%. Also these withstand the repeated strain in elastic range (at strain level ±1500 × 10-6 strain) like ordinary strain gauges. However, these are not applicable to the measurement of repeated strain in a large range.

* Suitable when a large strain measurement is made after a few days or more of bonding the strain gauge.
