Direct Shear
IS: 2720 (Part 13), ASTM D 3080
The Direct Shear test is carried out with an apparatus consisting of a
square or circular box divided into two halves. The specimen, contained in
the box, is subjected to a constant normal load while an increasing
horizontal force is applied to one of the sections of the shear box. This
force causes a shear failure along the junction between the box sections.
The shear force and the normal load are measured directly. The rate of
strain is adjusted by the speed of the horizontal force applied. The loading
unit has V-strips on which the shear box housing rests.The precalibrated
load yoke with direct and lever system for applying normal load of 8 kg/cm2
capacity, fixtures, for proving ring brackets, for holding consolidation and
strain dial gauges and lead screw for application of shear stress
