The GDS Variable Direction Dynamic Cyclic Simple Shear (VDCSS) allows direct simple shear testing to be performed in two directions, rather than the standard single direction. This capability is achieved by incorporating a secondary shear actuator that operates at 90 degrees to the primary actuator.
Product Features
- Enables simple shear testing in two perpendicular directions
- Includes a secondary shear actuator at 90 degrees to the primary actuator
- Ideal for advanced geotechnical testing requiring bi-directional shear
Benefits
- Provides more comprehensive understanding of soil behavior under multi-directional shear
- Improves accuracy of cyclic shear testing
- Suitable for complex research and commercial laboratory applications
Why Choose GDS Variable Direction Dynamic Cyclic Simple Shear?
GDS delivers an innovative dual-direction dynamic cyclic shear system that enhances shear testing capabilities for realistic soil behavior analysis under multi-directional loads.
