Tenders Description & Specification for Buoyancy Balance
Buoyancy Balance
Specification: The density of both fresh and hardened concrete is of
interest to the engineer for numerous reasons including its effect on
durability, Strength and resistance to permeability. Hardened concrete
density is determined either by simple dimensional checks, followed by
weighing and calculation or by weight in air / water buoyancy methods.
Density of Hardened Concrete:
The density of hardened concrete specimens such as cubes and cylinders
can be quickly and accurately determined using a Buoyancy Balance.
Buoyancy Balance:
The buoyancy balance system developed by us consists of a rigid support
frame. Incorporating a water tank mounted on a platform. A mechanical
lifting device is used to raise the water tank through the frame height
immersing the specimen suspended below the balance fixed on a cradle.
The balance supplied may also be used as a standard weighting device,
thus providing a versatile and comprehensive weighing system in the
laboratory. The sample is weighed in air and in water to calculate the
density of fresh concrete.
Ltekonline are the manufacturers of Buoyancy Balance used to demonstrate engineering principles in Engineering Colleges, Engineering Schools and Concrete Testing Lab Equipment for Engineering Teaching Lab in Universities
