Our Company
A name, a meaning
During the months preceding March 1968, when the company was founded, we were involved, among other things, with finding a company name related to our business. A name that could be understood in all languages, or almost all, and also easy to pronounce: CONTROLS. From the beginning, we wanted to operate both domestically and internationally, in order to best utilize our technical skills and to best serve the needs of the market. Milan, being strategically located and having a particularly favourable climate for industrial and commercial growth, was chosen as our base of operation. At the same time, our international network was taking form, with the creation of agents, distributors, branches in France, Mexico, Spain and the United Kingdom, while our R&D Service was developing new and sophisticated testing systems that have placed us in the forefront worldwide. The recent acquisition of Wykeham Farrance UK, world leader in the field of advanced geotechnical testing system, has further strengthened our organization. Now CONTROLS is an international group and the major world producer of testing equipment.
Our R&D specialists, often collaborating actively with the academic world, have developed highly specialized testing systems and updated a number of new products.

DRYING, WEIGHING AND GRADING
Introduction
Balances are a general purpose laboratory apparatus used either for soil, aggregates, cement, concrete and asphalt testing. Controls supply a wide range of models suitable for different applications ranging from the central laboratories field use, educational etc. Electronic models are now recommended assuring better performance, with simplicity in use for a reasonable cost. Battery operated models are particularly suitable for field use. We also propose a range of accessories and calibration weights to periodically check the balances.
How to select balances Where not specified by the relevant standards, the tables given below may be used to select the appropriate balance conforming to the general specification for balances given in the ASTM D4753-95, BS 1377:Part 1, and EN 932-5. Very often a single specification requires balances having a readability and tolerance of 0.1% of the specimen mass to be measured which is another suitable choice criteria. Other standards covering aggregates and granular materials in general give information about the quantity of aggregate to be tested depending upon its size (UNI 8520 part 5, BS 812: part 1, BS 598 etc.). The different standards give practically the same recommendation so we have included this information in a separate table.

Introduction
We propose three different models which differ one to another, for the sieving motion: - Vertical only for the 15-D0407/B model - Vertical and rotational with continuous or intermittent operation and adjustable vibration intensity for the 15-D0409 model - Vertical, orbital and jarring motion for the electromechanical model 15-D0411. The 15-D0407/B can also be used, removing the upper plate, as a vibrating table for one concrete specimens.

Soil Testing
INTRODUCTION
In all sections of civil engineering and particularly in soil mechanics, the engineer during the design stage must ensure that the analysis of soil properties relate directly to the relevant foundation or structure. Using procedures involving extracting, examining and testing representative samples the engineer can compute a model very close to the real situation. In recent years we have seen a significant contribution to experimental analysis resulting from more sophisticated testing procedures, updating of many International Standards, and publication of good testing manuals and procedures. CONTROLS have been an active participant in this approach to excellence and are recognised both in Europe and Internationally as the partner of
choice for supplying advanced and high level equipment in the important field of quality control. The testing equipment in this catalogue has been carefully designed and manufactured to conform to the most recent specifications and standards. By combining this with improved skill levels the engineer can reach a higher degree of accuracy and repeatability of test results resulting in total confidence in the data produced. Widely used in materials testing laboratories around the world, the testing equipment of CONTROLS can also be seen in Universities and Technical Institutes for the training and education of tomorrow's geo-technical engineers and technicians.

The moisture content can be determined using Moisture testers based on the calcium carbide method. The soil sample is introduced in the bottle with the reagent. The water reacts with calcium carbide and develops a gas pressure, which is indicated on the manometer and easily converted in percentage of moisture. This model is offered as alternative to the Speedy testers and can be used when the presumed humidity content exceeds the 20% as the sample weight can be varied from 3 to 100 g for the complete reaction with the calcium carbide contained in the glass ampoule. Furthermore the reaction starts only when the bottle is closed and shaken so the steel balls break the glass ampoule containing calcium carbide with no risk for the operator.

SOIL TESTING
Soil classification
In view of the great diversity of soil materials caused by the different process of formations, engineers have long recognised a need to characterise them simply, so that physical and mechanical properties may be quickly assessed. For this purpose a series of index tests have been properly developed and internationally standardised. By performing proper classification tests it is possible to describe accurately a soil in such a way that its characterisation is recognised internationally.

BS 1377:3
The resistivity value indicates the relative capability of the soil to carry electric currents from which the corrosiveness of the soil can be deduced.
Wenner probe method This procedure enables the electrical resistivity of an undisturbed or disturbed soil sample to be measured in the laboratory. Four probes are inserted into the sample, the two outer are connected to the source of current and the resistance is measured across the two inner probes. The test is not recommended for soils containing an appreciable amount of gravel-size particles. Open container method This procedure is for the measurement of the electrical resistivity of a soil such as fill material that has been compacted to a specified density and then saturated by adding water. It is suitable only for relatively free-draining materials into which water can percolate easily.

SOIL TESTING
General information
Total stress measurement Unconsolidated Undrained (UU) tests With this method the shear strength is measured with respect to total stress. The soil specimen (assumed saturated) is not allowed to consolidate, maintains its original structure and water content, so that its resistance only depends on the level of geostatic stress in the field. Tests are usually carried out on three specimens of the same sample, subjected to different confining pressure. Provided that the soil is fully saturated, the effective stresses at failure is the same for each test. The Mohr envelope, plotted with respect to total stress is horizontal and the shear strength is constant and equal to Cu (undrained shear strength).
Piston a = porous stone b = rubber membrane c = cell fluid Lateral pressure SOIL
With this test method the shear strength is measured in terms of effective stress. At least three specimens are allowed to consolidate (i.e. to change its structure and water content) at different level of confining pressure before failure. Due to the fact that shear strength increases raising the effective stresses the Coulombs model can be applied in terms of effective stress: = c + n tg where: = shear resistance; n = effective normal stress c, = parameters of Mohr envelope in terms of effective stress During the failure stage the specimen is not allowed to drain and pore pressure is measured, so that the effective stresses are calculated as the difference between the total stress and the pore pressure.
a = porous stone b = rubber membrane c = cell fluid Lateral pressure SOIL No drainage
Effective stress measurement Consolidated Drained (CD) tests This test method is similar to the CU test as the shear strength can be related to the applied level of stress. At least three specimens are allowed to consolidate at different levels of confining pressure. The failure stage is carried out very slowly to prevent the increase of pore pressure inside the specimen, which is allowed to drain. The total and effective stresses are the same. Mohr circles are drawn for effective stresses at failure and the parameters c and are determined from the Mohr envelope.
Piston a = porous stone b = rubber membrane c = cell fluid Lateral pressure SOIL drainage

Intoduction This new series of automatic machine has been designed to perform compression triaxial tests both in consolidation and failure stage. The consolidation stage can also be performed in anisotropic conditions, with k0 < 1 (i.e. vertical stress higher than horizontal stress). All the tests are carried out automatically either in controlled rate of displacement (as the traditional compression machines) or in controlled rate of load (particularly suitable for consolidation stage) and terminated automatically at pre-set test conditions. The 28-T0403/AC machine can be upgraded to perform also extension tests (extension-unload). See upgrading options. General description Two threaded column highly stable frame with upper crosshead beam, adjustable in height by means of a simple locking-nut system, that assures correct application of the axial stress within the triaxial chamber. The lower box of the compression machine contains the stepper motor with servo control drive, the control panel with large graphic displays, for input of servo control parameters, test data and calibration factors, the display of recorded data in real time, the battery backed data storage and the serial output to PC. Stand alone model for automatic triaxial tests control (Unconfined UU, CU, and CD) with store of test data and possibility to download via serial port in real time or deferred time for data analysis, processing and printing. The following triaxial tests can be automatically performed: - Pre-axial load before the failure stage, to recreate or carry out the consolidation
stage in anisotropic conditions (with K0 < 1) - Failure stage in conditions of compression (increasing axial pressure) - Triaxial (UU, CU, CD) and unconfined tests are carried out either in controlled stress or in controlled strain conditions and terminated automatically at pre-set conditions.

Software application The machine is fully automatic, controlled via the front panel with digital display of test measurements (axial pressure, axial displacement, pore pressure and volume change) in real time. The computer is only temporarily connected for data transmission of stored data for monitoring of the test in progress, processing and printing of results. For complete processing according to the International standards (BS 1377, ASTM, ISSMGE) and customised printout of test reports a special software, Windows compatible, is available for triaxial tests (see Geolab 2000, code 30-T0601/P3). The following diagrams and printouts are available for a single or for a group of tests: - Mohrs circle plots and Mohr-Coulomb linear failure envelope - Stress path plots and failure envelope (according to MIT analysis) - Axial stress vs. axial strain - Pore pressure vs. axial strain (for CU triaxial tests) - Volume change vs. axial strain (for CD triaxial tests) - Stress ratio vs. strain - Skemptons A parameter vs. axial strain (for CU triaxial tests). A special section of the software is devoted to the customised printout, 30-T0601/R0. The user can introduce all the information and general data to printout each test certificate (logo of the laboratory, name of the technicians involved in the tests, file of the test, number of the certificate, reference standards, etc.).

Introduction The 28-T0403/AC machine can be upgraded to perform extension tests (extensionunloaded), where the axial stress can be reduced below the horinzontal stress. This condition (where the factor K0 is >1) can be automatically carried out either in the consolidation or in the failure stage, at constant rate of stress. The maximum tensile capacity is 8 kN. Data recording, downloading to PC, processing and printing are carried on in the same way described above.

Pressure system
Introduction
The pressure system provides two separate lines for the desired constant pressure inside the triaxial cell (cell pressure system) and in the specimen drainage line (back pressure system). A specimen volume change indicator (burette or electric transducer type) is also provided. The system is completed by a deaired water apparatus and by all other accessories such as tubing, valves etc. Different solutions are available depending on the type of test to be performed. - Air/water bladder system actuated by a pneumatic compressor - Motorised oil and water system - Automatic digital controllers connectable to PC. For clarity we propose first the most common layout systems and then all single components. All single components can however be combined to provide different solutions conforming to the users requirements.

Introduction and application The automatic pressure controllers can be used to control or to manage both cell pressure and back pressure in the triaxial tests (UU, CU or CD), in order to perform the different stages: saturation, consolidation and failure. The controllers are associated to a triaxial compression machine to automatically control a complete test via a p.c. With this system it is possible to perform either compression or extension tests (varying horizontal or vertical stress as well) on the soil specimen up to 100 mm diameter, using standard type triaxial cells (see page 75). Proper application software packages are available to automatically perform the different stage of triaxial tests.
MAIN ADVANTAGES - Suitable for both compression or extension tests - Easily mounted on a laboratory bench, reducing the working space of the traditional systems - Very accurate control and measurement of hydraulic pressures applied to the soil samples - Completely automatic management of the tests through p.c.

Soil compaction 33
SOIL TESTING
Compaction
Introduction
When highway or railway earthworks, bases, subbases and dams are constructed and subgrades are prepared, it is necessary to compact the material mechanically, to confer a high degree of density. This procedure increases the shear strength, reduces the permeability and water absorption, and reduces the tendency to settle under repeated loading. Compaction is therefore defined as the process of increasing the density of a material by mechanical means. To simulate the procedure adopted in the earthworks to obtain a
defined level of compaction in the field, several laboratory tests have been developed over the years; they only differ for the different level of energy applied to the soil sample. The terms "percent compaction" or "relative compaction" usually refer to the ratio of the dry weight per unit volume of a field-compacted soil, compacted with mechanical equipment, to the maximum dry weight per unit volume of the same soil, compacted in the laboratory in accordance with a standard procedure, at the "optimum moisture content".
A number of new EN standards have been developed or are under development covering this subject. The test methods are practically identical to those of the other standards except for some dimension and specification of testing apparatus. For this reason we prefer to propose separately all the EN testing apparatus even if, very often, they are identical to those referring to other standards.

34-T0093
Accessories 82-D1256 Dial gauge 25 mm range, s 0.01 mm subdiv. or 82-D1253 Dial gauge 1 in. range, s 0.001 in. subdiv. or 82-D1255 Dial gauge 10 mm range, s 0.01 mm subdiv.
All the above have to be completed by the suitable accessories, which may change conforming to the standard in use and the level of sophistication preferred. For instance, the specific model Series 34-T0106 can be equipped either with a standard load ring and dial gauge or with an electronic load cell, displacement transducer, digital data acquisition and software for PC connection. The specific testing machine Series 34-T0106 is also proposed in the BS version 34-T0106/BS with a testing speed of 1 mm/min instead of 1.27 mm/min. Finally, to simplify your selection we also propose the above models complete with CBR accessories in the analogic version (see 34T0106/A and 34-T0106/B models). Hand operated models for field use are also available (see page124).

General description The machine features a very rigid twocolumn frame with the upper crossbeam, which can be adjusted in height and locked in position with locknuts. The base cabinet houses the load jack, D.C. motor and electronic controls. The machine, which is suitable for wide range of tests such as CBR, MARSHALL, QUICK TRIAXIAL, UNCONFINED, SPLITTING TENSILE TESTS, etc. can be completed with accessories in the analogic and digital version as shown in the pictures. In the digital version, the load and displacement transducers have to be connected to the Digimax Plus 76-Q0802/C. Furthermore, the displacement transducer to measure the penetration (CBR) and flow (Marshall) can be fitted in two different ways: - Internally to the machine (see Upgraded option 34-T0107/UP) - Externally (see accessories 82-P0332 and 34-T0104/8). The internal option is more suitable for general use including CBR and Marshall tests but has to be factory installed and specified at time of order. The external option can be fitted at any time to all CBR machines without arrangements and/or modifications. A limit cut-off switch stops the machine at the maximum platen travel. (1) For the 110 V, 60 Hz model add the suffix /Z to the code (e.g. 34-T0107/Z).
Internal transducer option: The internal displacement transducer As specified in the general description, the machine can be upgraded when used in the digital version, by a displacement transducer which has to be factory installed. Choosing this option please specify when ordering:

Field density
The verification of the degree of compaction can be determinate on site by a simple procedure consisting essentially in removing and weighing a part of compacted soil and replacing it in the hole with sand by a simple apparatus recording the volume of sand and then calculating the density of the removed soil. Two versions are available: BS and ASTM. The principle of operation is the same but parts and sizes are different.

Advantages over the plate load tester - Time-saving immediate evaluation of each measurement - Testing in locations not readily accessible - Low tester weight - No vehicle required for loading. The dynamic plate load test using the Light drop-weight tester has been approved as an indirect test method for determining the degree of ramming, in: ZTVEStB 94 ZTVEStB 95 ZTVEStB 97 NGT 39 Function Place the load plate on the prepared surface to be tested and position the loading unit on the load plate. Connect the settlement meter. The drop weight is allowed to drop onto the spring element, the loading unit produces a defined impact load and the overall amount of compaction (or settlement) of the soil under the load plate is measured. Once the measuring routine is started perform three impact cycles for the measurement. Following each cycle the meter displays the amount of settlement in millimetres. Upon completion of a series of measurements, the settlement is averaged, and the dynamic modulus of deformation is determined and displayed. Results can be printed out on a micro-printer or on a printer connected to a PC as necessary.

SOIL TESTING
Introduction
The soil permeability is a very important factor to study the behaviour of soil in its natural conditions with respect to water flow. Two different methods of testing are proposed: constant head and falling head. The first one is particularly suitable for relatively coarsegrained soil such as sands and gravel and the second is more appropriate for fine-grained soils such as claylike or silty soils.

This method is particularly suitable for fine-grained soils such as clay-like or silty soils in the range of 1x10-2 to 1x10-6 cm/s. The test is performed with a permeability cell, which has to be connected to a manometer stand. During the test the cell is placed in a soaking tank fitted with overflow tube. As an option the apparatus can be completed with a suitable de-airing tank to fill the system with de-aired water along with a vacuum control panel, water trap and vacuum pump. All these items are listed below.

Rock
According to the Committee on Rock Mechanics, National Academy of Sciences rock mechanics is a theoretical and applied science concerning the physical behaviour of rocks subjected to stress conditions of different origin. In general terms, rock mechanics involves the study of underground works such as tunnels, and surface construction such as open quarries or dam foundations. When a rock sample is subjected to defined stress conditions in the laboratory, the stress-strain diagram can show behaviours of non linearity also for very small strains, hysteresis, anisotropy, fluage conditions, etc. All these phenomena can be mathematically described.
fields of the construction industry to produce bituminous mixtures, concrete, mortars to be used in structures, fill materials, railway ballast, etc. For this reason we have given particular attention to all testing methods. The new EN standards have grouped all tests on aggregates in five main subjects: - Tests for general properties of aggregates - Tests for geometrical properties of aggregates - Tests for mechanical and physical properties of aggregatesTests for thermal and weathering properties of aggregates - Tests for chemical properties of aggregate. In the majority of cases the new EN Standards correspond to some existing National Standards and, apart from a few exceptions there is almost no difference in the specifications of test apparatus.

UNIAXIAL TEST
TRIAXIAL TEST
q STANDARD ASTM D3148, D2938 ISRM: Suggested methods for determining the uniaxial compressive strength and deformability of rock materials
The uniaxial test is performed applying an increasing load at a constant rate of stress between 0.5 and 1.0 MPa/s. Axial and radial strain are measured with high sensitivity (about 5x10-6). Subsequent load-unload cycles are also carried out to obtain a correct evaluation of the compressibility properties.
q STANDARD ASTM D2664, D5407 ISRM: Suggested methods for determining the strength of rock materials in triaxial compression
The triaxial test is performed on test rock samples, contained in a rubber sealing membrane, placed within a triaxial chamber and subjected to an isotropic pressure (generally between 5 and 60 MPa), kept constant during the test. An axial load is subsequently applied; tests and measurements are carried on in the same way as for uniaxial tests.
From the measurements recorded during the test the following information is obtained: - Rate of stress versus axial and radial strain - Maximum or failure stress - Tangent and secant Youngs modulus measured on the stress-axial strain curve - Rate of radial strain versus axial strain to obtain the Poissons ratio - Maximum stress versus applied cell pressure (in the triaxial tests) to define the failure envelope and the corresponding properties (cohesion and friction). Another important parameter investigated in the triaxial tests concerns the permeability characteristics of rocks and rock behaviour when subjected to high water pressure, especially for the study of dam foundations, and generally for underground tunnels and cavities.

DETERMINATION OF ELASTIC MODULUS AND STRENGTH CHARACTERISTICS OF ROCK SPECIMENS IN UNIAXIAL AND TRIAXIAL CONDITIONS
code 50-C7022, has been specifically designed for rock testing (Uniaxial tests only) - Hoek triaxial cell to be selected conforming the specimen size (Triaxial tests only) - Strain gauges and accessories - Test software. Operating principle According to the reference standards, during the test the compression load on the rock specimen shall be applied continuously without shock, in such a manner to produce a strain rate as constant as possible, so that failure will occur within 5-10 min of loading or alternatively at a constant rate of stress, within the limits of 0.51.0 MPa/sec. Moreover, for triaxial tests, the confining pressure has to be maintained constant to within 1%. Our new System has been designed to completely fulfil these strict specifications of the test procedures. The ADVANTEST 9 is driven by a sophisticated micro-processed servo-control and both uniaxial and triaxial tests can be carried on at very stable rate of stress, displacement or strain. The SERCOMP 7 provides the automatic control and managing of cell pressure within the limits prescribed by the Standards. Strain measurements are performed by means of strain gauges applied directly to the specimen, both in
axial and radial direction, so that Poissons ratio and compressibility parameters are easily and properly evaluated during the test. Axial load and cell pressure are also monitored by means of load cells and/or pressure transducers at high levels of sensitivity and accuracy. All the test data are graphically displayed in real time, and stored in ASCII files for further analysis with appropriate software packages. Note. For a complete list of suggested items to perform Triaxial and Uniaxial test see Table on page 151. Interactive control of cell pressure and vertical load The remarkable performances of the Automatic Test System can be further improved for research purposes, by a customised software expansion concerning the bi-directional communication between the ADVANTEST 9 and SERCOMP 7 units with interactive control of triaxial cell pressure and vertical load.

TRIAXIAL TEST
The lateral pressure is increased by programming steps and the corresponding axial load is determined. Substantially the failure point is continuously varied by changing the lateral pressure.
HOEK CELLS FOR TRIAXIAL TESTS
Hoek triaxial cells are offered in four models of different size; each one consists of the following: - A cell body , complete with two quick release self sealing couplings, for the introduction of the hydraulic oil and cell pressure, and for air outlet and saturation of the chamber respectively. - Two end caps , screwed into the cylindrical cell body. - Upper and lower loading caps with spherical coupling - Two female spherical seatings connected to the loading caps and for the correct transmission of the axial load from the loading frame of the compression machine to the specimen. - A rubber sealing sleeve to separate the specimen from the cell fluid. Although each sleeve can be used for several tests, an order of five spare sleeves is recommended (see accessories). Measurements of axial and radial strain are carried out with the use of electric strain gauges , both in vertical and horizontal direction, directly glued on the lateral surface of the specimen. The wiring connections are passed within the rubber sleeve through the cell body and loading cap. Each strain gauge must be connected to a proper electric device (see 82-P0070/1) to complete and balance the Wheatstone bridge. The strain gauge measurements can be performed by automatic testing systems described on page 146 or by suitable Datalog described on page 153. The cell pressure and saturation pressure for permeability tests are carried out by the use of appropriate equipment (see page 156).

Considering the average splitting strength value of different types of rock ranging from 3 to 14 MPa, a load frame of 50 kN max. capacity should be suitable. A suitable testing machine is our Universal tester 70-T0108/E, 50 kN cap. that can operate either with load or displacement control. Our Sales Dept. is at your complete disposal for any assistance you may need.

ROCK AND AGGREGATES TESTING
Introduction
This test is performed to measure the water flow through the rock specimen contained in the Hoek cell and subjected to high confining pressure. The hydraulic gradient within the rock sample is supplied by a constant pressure apparatus and the water permeating the sample is collected in a burette. A couple of end caps are also necessary to fit the Hoek cell.

ROCK AND AGGREGATES TESTING
Behaviour of joints
Another important section of rock mechanics involves the study of discontinuities within the rock mass, where the compression and shear strength is lower. The behaviour of joints is particularly investigated: they are originated from geological failures, breaking off the rock mass continuity, along which no sliding mechanism is shown. From the rock mechanics point of view the discontinuities are characterised by mechanical strength lower than the original rock matrix and require detailed test investigations.
STRENGTH OF THE JOINT WALLS
It is conventionally investigated with the Schmidt Hammer (L model). A series of 10 measurements is performed both on the joint walls and on a new failure surface. From the 10 values obtained the 5 lower are rejected and the compression strength is given by the average value of the last 5. This parameter is generally indicated as JCS (Joint Wall Compressive Strength), expressed in MPa.
SURFACE ROUGHNESS OF THE JOINT
This parameter is defined on the joint surface with the Barton comb (Profilometer 45-D0556) used to reproduce the roughness profile. The line obtained is compared with a scale of roughness profiles, proposed by Barton, each of them is specified with a classification number JRC, variable from 0 to 20 (JRC = Joint Roughness Coefficient).
TILT TEST
An empirical method for an immediate evaluation of the JRC index is obtained with the tilt test (model 45-B0096). It essentially consists of a horizontal plane, upon which the two parts of the sample are placed, laid one upon the other along the joint surface. Then the plane is gradually tilted until the relative displacement of the upper piece of the sample on the lower one is observed. The equipment is fitted with a lower edge, to stop the lower specimen from sliding, and one goniometer. The tilting angle measured is related to the JRC index with the following:
- R JRC = ______________ Log (JCS/)
angle of residual shear friction (obtained from the shear test) normal pressure acting on the joint surface, generated by the weight of the upper piece of the sample JCS joint resistance (measured with the Schmidt Hammer)
Therefore the shear test is performed: on a smooth joint to directly obtain the shear friction angle on a rough joint to calculate from JCS and JRC. From the above expression it is interesting to observe that, when the normal stress equals JCS (compression strength of the joint itself), ieff becomes 0. The mechanical explanation is that, when the joint walls are fractured for the applied high normal pressure, the shear resistance of the rock only depends from the shear strength angle and not from the surface roughness of the joint. For the measurement of the residual shear strength of the joint the direct shear test is also used. The mathematical expression representing the behaviour of residual strength is the Coulombs linear failure envelope without cohesion:
= tg R
It is obtained from the direct shear test. The peak resistance of a rough joint is calculated from the following relationship (Barton, 1973):
= tg ( + ieff)
with
JCS ieff = JRC log ______

New EN European Standards and relation with the existing National Specifications
ROCK AND AGGREGATES TESTING
y the time this catalogue has been printed a number of new European Standards concerning aggregates will have been published and the correspondent National Standards are automatically superseded. The new EN Standards for aggregates have been grouped in five main subjects: Standards - Tests for general properties of aggregates from EN 932-1 to EN 932-6 - Tests for geometrical properties of aggregates from EN 933-1 to EN 933-10 - Tests for mechanical and physical properties of aggregates from EN 1097-1 to EN 1097-10 - Tests for thermal and weathering properties of aggregates from EN 1367-1 to EN 1367-5 - Tests for chemical properties of aggregates from EN 1744-1 to EN 1744-3
In the majority of cases the new EN Standards correspond to some existing National Standards and, apart from a few exceptions there is almost no difference in the specifications of test apparatus. In order to allow clients the choice to update, if necessary, their laboratory equipment, we list below all the new EN Standards with corresponding National Standard. Considering that in many countries outside Europe the National Standards such as BS and NF will still be adopted, we continue to supply the relative apparatus.

NEW EN EUROPEAN STANDARDS AND RELATION WITH THE EXISTING NATIONAL SPECIFICATION
By the time this catalogue has been printed a number of new European Standards concerning concrete will have been published and the relevant National Standards automatically superseded. The new EN and pr EN standards, which have been produced by the CEN/TC 104 are grouped in two
main subjects:
EN 12350-1 to 12350-7 Testing Fresh Concrete EN 12390-1 to 12390-11 Testing Hardened Concrete
In the majority of cases the new EN standards correspond to some existing National Standards and, apart for some exceptions there should be almost no difference in the specification
of test apparatus. Considering that in many countries outside Europe the National Standards such as BS and NF will still be adopted, we continue to propose the relevant apparatus as well as the ASTM and AASHTO testing equipment. For more information the following table indicates the correspondent or comparable standards to the new EN.

SAFETY FEATURES
Standard models
The load frames are fitted with: - Ram travel switch which prevents the excessive piston travel. - Front and rear transparent fragment guard. - Optional: locking switch to cut off mains when the door is open. See accessories 50-C0050/P, page 199. The frames have to be completed with the suitable distance pieces conforming to the specimen size. See page 202.
Importance of the verification of force transfer The conformity of compression testers to the EN 12390-4 requirements in terms of stability (force transfer) is mainly due to the frame design, spherical seat and compression platens. All our frames are fully conform to these stringent requirements which requires the verification of the self-alignment of machine components and the restraint on movement of the upper platen using a special strain gauged column (e.g. our model 82-E0105/1) connected to a suitable data acquisition and processing system (e.g. our model 82P0804/E). Unsatisfactory premature sample failure is caused by an incorrect load application. The resultant compression resistance can be significantly lower than the true resistance. Satisfactory failure

An advanced flexible testing system ideal for standard and advanced automatic tests on construction materials - P.I.D. Closed loop control - Control up to 4 different hydraulic frames - Perform tests under control of: - Load/Stress - Displacement - Strain - For connection of pressure transducer, load cells, displacement and strain transducers - Particularly suitable to test Deformability and Ductility of - Fiber reinforced concrete - ShotCrete - Concrete with polymer fibre lining - High flexibility: can control very low capacity hydraulic frames up to 5000 kN models
Introduction CONTROLS with over 30 years experience within the field of materials testing, working alongside customers in industry and research establishment, has resulted in the most comprehensive range of testing systems, software and test accessories currently available. The constant innovation and modern design applied to our testing systems, in cooperation with State Universities, has resulted in the development of the ADVANTEST 9 Servohydraulic testing unit.
50-C9842
General description The unit consists of: - Hydraulic power system - Microprocessor control unit - User interface with large graphic display and keyboard, PC and printer - Interactive software for PC. The ADVANTEST 9 can control up to 4 hydraulic testing frames, of various dimensions and capacities, to perform tests under controlled speed of: - Load/stress (e.g. MPa/s; kN/s; etc.) - Displacement (e.g. m/s; m/s) - Strain (e.g. mstrain/s). The feedback is automatically performed with P.I.D. closed loop control. The system controls the displacement of the hydraulic piston as a function of the load or stress or strain by a suitable transducer. The displacement transducer is placed by the user where needed to measure for example the deflection of a beam under flexure load. The strain transducers are typically fixed on the specimen for direct reading.
Main applications The performances of the ADVANTEST 9, besides to the conventional applications where the test ends with the failure of the specimen are related to the more advanced applications as the determination of the: - Concrete post peak residual strength - Concrete fracture toughness, from the complete Hardening + Softening Load vs. Strain diagram - Determination of the Elastic modulus. The increasing use of new materials in the construction industry has created an increasing demand for new and more complex and sophisticated tests often related to the Deformability and Ductility behaviour. The Ductility is a fundamental design parameter, which is related to the seismic risks, micro-fissure due to shrinkage, the fatigue behaviour, the resistance to shocks.

K-SLUMP METHOD
q STANDARD
NF P18-452 54-C0152
This test method is a variation of the simple slump test and subjects the concrete to vibration after removal from the slump cone. The time taken for the concrete to be recompacted is taken as a measure of workability. The small vibrating table operates at a fixed amplitude and frequency, and in the test a plastic disc is placed into contact with the upper surface of the concrete. The test is completed when the lower surface of the disc has been completely coated with cement grout.

This device is used to determine the workability and degree of compaction of fresh concrete after being placed in the forms. It

can be used for in-situ measurements or inside test moulds and forms. Results can be correlated against the slump test. The operation is very simple, insert the tester into the concrete up to the level of the disc, after 60 seconds, a measuring rod is lowered onto the surface of the concrete and the Kslump is read directly on a scale. The calibrated hollow tube has a diameter of 20 mm.

Introduction The method concerns the determination of the depth of penetration of water under pressure. The test is performed by clamping a concrete prism 200x200x120 mm or 15 cm cube between two flanges with special circular gaskets. The water, under controlled pressure is then applied to the surface of the concrete specimen. The penetration of water is measured after the testing period by breaking the specimen or taking the readings through the graduated glass burettes. Two models available: three place (code 55-C0244/A) and six place (code 55-C0244/B) version. Both of them can be fitted with burettes for the quantitative determination of water penetration (codes 55-C0244/AV and 55-C0244/BV). The systems can test concrete specimens up to 200 mm side or dia. and 300 mm high. Supplied complete with gaskets for 150 mm cube specimens. The apparatus have to be fitted with a suitable air compressor, maximum working pressure 10 bar. (See accessories).
- Manometer available to check water pressure - One, two or three specimens can be tested at the same time

Introduction
The development and improvement of in-situ test techniques better known as non-destructive test methods (NDT) are the result of the need to investigate: - The progressive ageing of concrete structures - The effect of chemical attacks on concrete often due to air pollution or to the use of chlorides in winter to prevent icing - The quality and integrity of new structures - The problems associated with historical buildings.
This catalogue includes a vast selection of NDT instruments and apparatus with precise indications concerning the product use and the relative applications. Controls is also prepared to supply pre-sales advice in order to identify the appropriate apparatus and all suggestions concerning their correct use.

Microcore method
MICROCORE METHOD
A proven technique for the non-destructive evaluation of concrete and masonry strength taking 28 mm dia cores. Numerous studies and experiments carried out by University researchers confirm the importance and reliability of this system particularly when used in conjunction with other non-destructive testing apparatus such as the ultrasonic tester and the concrete hammer. The development has been carried out on a 28 mm dia. core sample, which due to its small size does not affect the integrity of the structure thus permitting easy restoration of the cored surface. More detailed information is supplied with the Microcore apparatus concerning the interpretation of results. This technique can also be used for assessing the carbonation depth (with the appropriate reagents) and for masonry products to verify their physical condition or to evaluate the compressive strength related to the direction of sampling.

Core preparation and compression The flatness of core ends is essential to obtain reliable compression results so it is very important to make sure that the tolerance is within 0.01 mm. Furthermore the compression test should be performed with a suitable compression machine considering that the max. required load should be lower than 50 kN. Cement compression testers or small universal testers may be conveniently used. Equipments for core surfaces preparation: see Section 45 Equipments for compression test: see Section 34 and 65.

Introduction The cross-hole ultrasonic test method is used to check the continuity of deep foundations, diaphragm walls or stay plates by detecting cracks or faults along the shaft and the tip. The homogeneity and quality of concrete are measured and defects are located accurately, even at the top of a pile. Sonic logging is a continuous measurement of sound velocity along the pile between an emitting sensor and a receiving sensor lowered down two or more tubes held together with reinforcements. The tubes are inserted before the concrete is poured and must reach the base of the pile.

INTRODUCTION
Inorganic binders have had a role in the construction industry since pre-classical times and, after successive transformations, are today briefly classified as cements, limes and plasters. These binders, as well as being used singularly are often mixed in order to produce an end product, which meets the technical characteristics of the user. Certainly, as far back as the second century the Romans mixed lime with pozzolan to enhance its hydraulic properties and then mixed this with aggregates in order to obtain bitunium, the forefather of todays concrete. In the 18th century lime was fired with clay in order to obtain the first hydraulic limes, which were further developed in the following century into a cement industry in which plaster played an important role.
Today, the various types of binders are well known, particularly cements, and they are becoming evermore sophisticated with pre-mixed cements designed to satisfy specific structural requirements. For several decades, national standards have governed over the production of these binders and have led, in each single producing country, to a high level of diversification. The current EN Standards have drawn on the know-how of the various national bodies in order to arrive at a unified Standard. We propose a vast range of machines that satisfy, practically all requirements.

The testing machines we propose provide the highest possible degree of flexibility when making the correct selection according to the test requirement. Considering that all the national European specifications are now superseded by the new EN 196 we can outline that there are just two main subdivisions:
A) EN MODELS B) ASTM/AASHTO MODELS
the bearing compression plates and flexural jigs. The EN requires both the flexural and the compression test, the ASTM C348, C349 require the same with a little difference in the flexural jig, and the ASTM C109 the compression test only on 50 mm (2) mortar cubes. Some versions of our testers can be conveniently used for testing other products and specimens such as bricks, resins, soil cement mixtures, gypsum, rocks, microcores , etc. using the appropriate accessory.
We propose three different group of testers:
The difference between the two Standards are basically the size of specimens and the specifications for
- The semiautomatic models 65-L10G2/C, L11G2/C, L12G2/C, and L13G2/C, which are fitted with the motorized pump with flow central valve and the Digimax Plus digital display and processing unit (see page 189) - The automatic models 65-L10V2, 65-L11V2, 65-L12V2 and 65-L13V2 which are fitted with the AUTOMAX system (see page 194) - The advanced automatic testing systems in various configurations which includes the different compression and flexural frames plus the control consoles SERCOMP 7, MCC 8 or ADVANTEST 9 which can also be connected to other frames to combine complete testing systems (see pages 209-217).
General description These machines, featuring a very rigid two column frame, have been designed for the testing of the cement prism either in compression or in flexure. The frames of the series 65L10XX and 65-L11XX are already fitted respectively with EN compression bearing plates and EN compression bearing plates plus flexural jig. The frames of the series 65-L12XX and 65L13XX are fitted with round compression platens and have to be completed, if needed, with the suitable compression and/or flexural devices. See accessories page 292. Safety features All models are fitted with ram travel limit switch and transparent fragment guards. Machine accuracy The EN 196-1 prescribe the 1% starting from 1/5 of the full range. All our models assure this requirement starting from 1/10 of the 250 kN scale and approx. 1/8 of the 15 kN scale.

Test laboratories that examine the mechanical properties of building materials require advanced Test Systems that guarantee a high degree of accuracy and compliance to the reference Standards. They also require user friendly equipment, rapid set up and execution, automation, flexibility, and the possibility to integrate with an existing network so as to create a comprehensive data storage and management procedure. The testing systems consist of a con-
trol console including hydraulic pump and circuit, electrical/electronic apparatus and strength measurement system, connected to 1 to 4 different frames. Different testing software can complete the testing system. Controls has recently updated and improved this important line of testing apparatus by the new SERCOMP 7 and MCC 8 control consoles which can be connected to up four different compression and
flexural frames for cement and concrete specimens. Complete description of the Sercomp 7 and MCC 8 series are given on pages 208 - 210. All testing frames concerning cement testing, connectable to the above control consoles are shown and described in the following pages.

General description The machines consist essentially of a robust two column frame with an upper crosshead which can be adjusted in height and a lower mobile crosshead moved by an electromechanical system with a single recirculating ball screw powered by a DC permanent magnet servomotor which assures smooth application of load at constant speed. The stress is measured by a load cell incorporated in the upper crosshead and the displacement by an encoder fitted to the DC motor. The advanced microprocessor technology achieves a large flexibility in conducting the test. The menu driven program gives the operator the possibility of performing the test under a wide range of conditions under load, elongation and displacement control. The machines are supplied complete with high precision load cell and PC. Gripping systems, extensometers and accessories are not included and have to be ordered separately. See accessories. Frame specifications - Max. load: 200 or 300 kN - Max. vertical daylight: 800 mm (without accessories) - Distance between columns: 610 mm - Crosshead travel: 200 mm - Testing speed range: 0-100 mm/min - Max. load rate: 100 kN/s - Machines class: 1 - Encoder resolution: 0.01 mm - Encoder accuracy: better than 0.2%

Introduction
The new technology utilised in this series of testing machines is based on the use of PC applications, which allow a totally new concept in steel testing. Gone are the old control consoles full of knobs and switches. Thanks to the use of the latest technology this new series provides both perfect closed loop hydraulic control and ergonomic operator usage. All the control functions are now managed from a standard keyboard and mouse. Our frames differ substantially from the old traditional models because of the originality of their design, new solutions employed and their extremely simple operation. The sophisticated software consists of a very complete suite of programs, not only for tension tests, but also flexure bending and compression on steel, and flexure and compression tests on concrete specimens, in compliance with the new EN specifications. Other accessories are available to test steel strands and electrowelded steel screen.

ELECTRONIC COAXIAL EXTENSOMETERS 70-C0961 SERIES COAXIAL EXTENSOMETER FOR TENSILE STRENGTH TESTING. (PATENT PENDING)
Introduction Extensometers used for measuring the extension of specimens in traction, particularly in the case of steel or brittle materials, are only able to detect strain during the first stage of the test, or rather, while the brittle materials conserve their elasticity as they have to be disconnected before failure. This simple and economic system, the result of our experience in this field, fully satisfies these requirements because: - it is applied directly to the specimen - it remains connected until breakage - it measures extension with high precision of both the elastic and plastic stage and with the appropriate simple adjustments, it is connectable to almost all testing machines - it avoids markings on the test pieces.
determines the measuring base, which, as is well known, must be 5 times the diameter of the specimen (in the case of breaking point measurements). The two end sections consist of two mechanisms for gripping the specimen. One carries the electrical extensometer, the other an anvil.
Detail of the extensometer after fracture. The two end sections remain connected to the specimen part without suffering any stress. Patent pending

INTRODUCTION
Bituminous materials, a by-product of the oil distillation process, look set to remain as a constituent material of road paving for some considerable time to come, being used to withstand the flexural and compressive stresses caused by traffic. Due to the ever increasing intensity of todays traffic conditions there is a demand for higher levels of performance from asphalt. As a result, the testing of the asphalt needs to look not only at the constituent mix, but the performance characteristics as well. There is an increasing demand to monitor the asphalt for voids percentage, look at the levels of compaction and investigate parameters such as the stiffness modulus and fatigue resistance in relation to the temperature, together with frequency of load or strain application. The range of testing equipment in this section of the catalogue is in conformity with the new European Draft Standards and the requirements of SHRP (Strategic Highway Research Program) to allow for a more in depth and realistic analysis of asphalt mixes.
Important new European Standards, specific to Asphalt and Road testing have been introduced since the Controls 5th edition catalogue was published. These new EN and pr EN produced by CEN/TC 227 Road Materials replace those previous National Standards and are grouped under the following headings: Bituminous mixtures. Test methods for hot mix asphalt. Standards EN 12697-1 to 12697-44 Surface dressing. Test methods. Standards pr EN 12272-1 to 12272-3 Slurry surfacing. Test methods. Standards pr EN 12274-1 to 12274-5 Pavement surface characteristics. Test methods. Standards pr EN 13036-1 to 13036-7 In the majority of cases the new pr EN and EN standards correspond to some existing National Standards and, apart for some exception, there should be almost no difference in the specification of test apparatus. We will continue to propose, however, the test apparatus conforming to the National Standards.

Introduction This European standard describes a unified approach to the examination of bituminous mixtures that allows some divergence in the detail of procedures followed by individual laboratories.
Guidance on the test method is given in the following Table. Although the apparatus specified for the separation of mineral filler from the binder solution obtained after extraction is of a suitably efficient level not to affect the precision of the test, a method for determining the amount of residual mineral matter is the Incineration method (pos. C of the table) for use in those particular cases
where some doubt may exist. Methods and equipment, other than those, including automated equipment, are permissible provided that it has been demonstrated that they provide the same results within the limits of the precision given in the Standard.

The new EN 12697-1 standard Test methods: Soluble binder content (continued)
General description and specifications The test method for determining the binder content of a test portion of bituminous mixture, normally comprises the following basic operations, which are shown in the Table 1: a) Binder extraction by dissolving in a hot or cold solvent
b) Separation of mineral matter from the binder solution c) Determination of binder quantity by difference or binder recovery and calculation of soluble binder content. The sequence of operations and choice of test procedures to be followed are illustrated in the Table 1. If it is suspected that water is present in the laboratory sample, it should be dried to constant mass or the water content may be determined by the method described in EN
12697-14 (see page 330) or the sample treated as in EN 12697-28. All test procedures and associated equipment relating to each basic operation shown on Table are equally acceptable. Other equipment and procedures, including non-extraction methods, can also be used. There are documented data to show that the method and equipment will provide results with a precision no worse than that of one of the procedures explicitly shown in Table 1.

Introduction
This European Standard describes three test methods for characterising the compactability of a bituminous mix, by the relation between its density or voids content and the compaction energy applied to it, using an impact (Marshall) compactor, gyratory compactor, or a vibratory compactor. This European Standard applies to hot mix asphalt with D not larger than 31.5 mm for the impact and gyratory compactors, and 40 mm for the vibratory compactor.
Detail of the rammer handling operation. The fast locking system allows easy maintenance operation, and the removable handle makes the rammer changing operation very fast and made by one person only
Main changes and differences compared with the ASTM D1559, AASHTO T245, and BS 598 standards The new EN standard concerning the Impact Compactor with wooden pedestal (clause 4.2) substantially differs from the ASTM D1559 and AASHTO T245 in the following construction major details: - Total weight of the rammer (sliding mass: 4550 20 g plus cylindrical guide rod and foot: 3960 20 g) of 8510 40 g instead of 7850 9 g - Wooden pedestal and fixation system - Blows frequency: 50 blows within 55 s to 60 s (not specified by ASTM/AASHTO and lower than BS 598: 60 5 per minute) - Device for the measurement of the specimen thickness during compaction (code 76-B4300/UP1) - Concrete block 450x450x200 mm - Mould assembly dimensions and shape. Furthermore, safety and inspection requirements shall be applied as for example a soundproof cubicle to be locked automatically when the apparatus is running. Our model 76-B4312 upgraded with the 76-B4200/XUP soundproof and security cabinet fully satisfy the EN standards.

Introduction These Standards specify the method for compaction of cylindrical specimens of bituminous mixtures using a gyratory compactor. Such compaction is achieved by combining a rotary shearing action and a vertical resultant force applied by a mechanical head. The method can be used for: - the preparation of specimens of given height at a predetermined density, for subsequent testing of their mechanical properties; - the derivation of a curve density versus number of gyrations; - the void content for a given number of gyrations.
This Standard applies to bituminous mixtures (both those made up in laboratory and those resulting from work site sampling), with an upper aggregate size not larger than 37.5 mm. During operation the bituminous mixture is contained within a cylindrical mould limited by inserts and kept at a constant temperature within specified tolerances throughout the whole duration of the test. Compaction is achieved by the simultaneous action of a low static compression, and of the shearing action resulting of the motion of the centreline of the test piece, which generates a conical surface of revolution, while the ends of the test piece remain approximately perpendicular to the axis of the conical surface. This method, recommended by the Strategic Highway Research Program SHRP - SuperPaveTM System and approved by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is used to produce asphalt specimens that best predict long term pavement performance. The procedure has been established by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO).

We present two versions, with pneumatically operated vertical pressure, both fully complying with the specifications: the 76B0252 and the most sophisticated model 77-B0251 which can also measure in real time the shear resistance of the material during compaction. This information is very important for research work. Both models are PC controlled and produce specimens, which really represent the in-situ compacted bituminous mixture, and allow construction compaction and traffic load to be simulated.

Introduction The importance of a precise gyratory angle has been widely noted. The measurement of the internal angle represents, in practice, the most accurate method of calibration. This method comprises two individual values: - Angle between cylinder and top plate and - Angle between cylinder and bottom plate. The average of these two values is taken as the internal angle. To date the angle calibration of gyratory compactors has been considered a difficult task leading to wide variations in results even between machines of the same brand. The 76-B0255 ILS calibration device fully satisfies the verifications requirements to measure the internal angle. It can also be used on any makes of gyratory compactors.

Introduction and operating principle This test method is used for the preparation of bituminous test specimens using a vibratory compaction technique. It is applicable to loose mixtures and cores and is used to establish a reference density for a bituminous mixture in accordance with the procedures described in EN 12697-9, or the ease of compaction as described in EN 12697-10. During operation, after the mixing, preparation and conditioning of a bituminous specimen in the laboratory, the heating of a core extracted from the road surface to compaction temperature, or the conditioning of plant-mixed material, the material or core is placed in a standard mould with attached baseplate and collar and compacted by a vibratory hammer. If required, the specimen is compacted to refusal and the refusal density is determined in accordance with EN 12697-9. After completion of compaction, the bulk density of the compacted specimen is determined in accordance with pr EN 12697-6. For loose material prepared or compacted in the laboratory, or plantmixed material compacted in the laboratory, the refusal density is an indication of the potential maximum density, which may be achieved under field conditions.

This standard concerns the laboratory mixing of samples to be used for mechanical tests as for example compaction, indirect tensile, Marshall etc. The quantity must be related to the maximum aggregate size and batch size. The bituminous mix must be prepared at a prescribed temperature depending on the paving grade bitumens within a time limited to reduce mechanical treatment of the aggregates. For this reason the mixers must be equipped with a thermostatically controlled heating and mechanical speed control.

The pr EN 12697-17 method (Cantabro test) concerns the determination of the particle loss (abrasion) of porous asphalt mixtures and the pr EN 12697-43 concerns the determination of the resistance of a bituminous mixtures or pavement to aviation fuel. Both procedures involve, within other standard laboratory tests, the abrasion in a Los Angeles tester conforming to EN 1097-2 without steel balls. Furthermore the pr EN 12697-17 prescribes a chamber or enclosure for the Los Angeles machine as the temperature shall remain constant with an uncertainty of 2C. This condition can be easily obtained by the soundproof and security cabinet 48-D0500/XUP which is however necessary to comply with CE directive.

EN 12390-4
Introduction The verification of force transfer includes: - Accuracy of force indication - Self-alignment of the upper machine plate - Alignment of the upper machine plate - Restraint of movement of the upper plate Conforming to the new EN 12390-4 standard, all compression machines have to be tested to verify not only the accuracy of force indication but: the self-alignment, alignment and restraint of movement of the upper plate too. These verifications can be performed using the strain gauged column 82-E0105/1 and the digital tester 82-P0804/E with suitable software as described on the following pages. The accuracy of force indication only can be performed using the same above apparatus or the 82-P0801/E tester with a suitable load cell as shown on page 402.
Verification of the force transfer of a compression tester by the strain gauged column 82-E0105/1 Digital tester 82-P0804/E, PC, Printer and 82-P0804/E1 software
platen using a special strain gauged column (e.g. our model 82-E0105/1) connected to a suitable data acquisition and processing system (e.g. our model 82-P0804/E). The same apparatus has been adopted
by most of the national European specifications and, recently by the EN specifications (EN 12390-4). All EN compression testers shown in this catalogue meet these stringent specifications.
Satisfactory failure
Importance of the verification of force transfer The result of a compression test on a cube or cylinder specimen is affected to a considerable extent (up to 3035%) by a non-uniform application of the load on the surface of the sample - this results in an exceptional force being applied to the material and its premature failure. For this reason the calibration certificate for the force measurement instrument mounted on the machine does not guarantee the accuracy of the strength result. Usually a nonuniform application of the load leads to unsatisfactory failures as shown opposite, which cannot be related to a known loss of strength. Since 1983, the BS 1881 specifications have included a testing procedure in addition to the normal calibration test, which verifies the self-alignment of machine components and the restraint on movement of the upper
Unsatisfactory failure
Unsatisfactory premature sample failure is caused by an incorrect load application. The resultant compression resistance can be up to 30-35% lower than the true resistance

General description These machines consist essentially in three main parts: - The motor (electric, petrol driven or air driven) - The base with adjustable feet and wheels - The support column. These three parts can be easily assembled and disassembled for transportation. The support steel column can be angled with respect to the base. The motor support is mounted on rollers and ball bearings. The aluminium base can be easily fitted on site by anchors, by suitable holding column or by vacuum using the appropriate accessory. Both the electric and petrol driven models can be used at any angle within the horizontal position using an appropriate fixing making sure that flushing water does not drop directly onto the motor and there is no petrol leakage. For vertical ceiling coring it is preferable to use the air motor model. For internal use we suggest the machine is fitted with a water collector system. (See accessories) The machines have to be completed with the coring bits. See table on next page. Electric models
