AI Technical Summary
In geotechnical engineering, the shear direction of structural surfaces is easily deviated during the field rock mass sampling process, which leads to inaccurate data in subsequent direct shear tests.
The mold uses an integrated inner and outer frame, combined with a support and adjustment assembly and a horizontal bubble level to ensure that the mold is in a horizontal and vertical position. The gaps on the rock surface are filled by steel plate grooves and steel plates, and the shearing direction is marked by an angle gauge to ensure that the sampled specimen is consistent with the main shearing direction of the in-situ rock mass.
It ensures the accuracy of the shear direction of the sampled specimen in the direct shear test, guarantees the validity of subsequent test data, and facilitates rapid installation and disassembly in the field.
