Materiaaltesten Fundering Van Asbeck Apparatus for Flexibility Test on Hydraulic...
The scope of Van Asbeck apparatus is to test and assess the flexibility property and related impermeability to water under pressure of hydraulic bituminous mixes to be used to cover the water storage of dams.
The apparatus consists essentially of a steel cylindrical cell divided in two sections: the
upper part that is the under pressure water container and the lower part consisting of a
cone with opening in the lower end. These two parts are clamped together by two flanges
(upper and lower) with the interposition of a 50 cm ID steel ring which contains the
compacted bituminous sample. The lower conical part has to be filled by 2-2.5 mm dia. of
glass spheres which support the compacted 50 cm diameter slab when it is subjected to 3
bar water pressure. The valve of the lower conical end is then opened and the glass
spheres are removed at a rate of 250 g every 15 minutes to a total of 5 kg, thus forming a
hollow space under the slab to a maximum depth of 5 cm. The water pressure is then
maintained for another 5 hours. The asphalt slab should remain impervious during this
flexibility test, even is fine surface cracks develop in the bottom of the slab.
The apparatus includes:
Overall dimensions: (dia.x h) 700x1000 mm
Weight approx.: 100 kg
The apparatus require compressed air. For a suitable air compressor see accessories.
