Dual Mass DCP Kit

Developed by the Army Corps of Engineers, Dynamic Cone Penetrometers (DCPs) provide a low-cost, efficient test method for quickly determining in situ California Bearing Ratio (CBR) values of pavement base, subbase, and subgrade. They can readily be used for depths up to 39” and up to 6’, with optional drive rods and extensions. This model complies with ASTM D6951 specifications and comes with a chart to compute CBR values.

The Dual Mass DCP Kit measures the shear strength of soil. This single-operator kit is ideal for City, County, and State High­way Departments, along with Geotech firms. CBR and psf can be estimated in the field from tables in the manual. It comes with a Stainless Steel Dual Mass DCP (17.6 lb (8Kg) or 10.1 lb (4.6 Kg)) Hammer and Quick Attach Upper Rod, 30” Drive Rod, 40” Aluminum Scale, Scale Guide Set, Dual Mass DCP Hard Cone Tip, and a Disposable Cone Tip Adapter with 25 Dual Mass DCP Disposable Tips for fast and easy extraction of the instrument from hard/cohesive soil. This kit also includes a crush-proof carrying case with transport wheels and a wrench set.
