Sand Absorption Apparatus

Product Code : TVT-ARTE-10296

The Sand Absorption Apparatus from Tvet Equipments determines the particle density and water absorption of fine aggregate, key parameters for concrete mix design and quality control.

How It Works

A saturated surface-dry sand sample is placed in the apparatus's flask or cone mould and tested for the saturated-surface-dry condition; combined with oven-dry and saturated weights, this allows particle density and water absorption percentage to be calculated.

Applications

Particle density and water absorption testing of fine aggregate is carried out as per IS 2386 (Part III) and ASTM C128, a standard mix-design input for concrete production across India.
