A regularly used compactiong testing tool by many of NZ soil engineers, the Scala Penetrometer is used to determine the penetration resistance of a soil.
The Scala Penetrometer or Hand cone penetrometer is used to determine the penetration resistance of a soil.The Scala is manufactured in accordance with NZS 4402 Test 6.5.2: 1988 and is an extremely useful tool for profiling soil strength at depth.
The components are all zinc plated and are available individually or as a complete kit packed in a heavy duty canvas carry bag with optional additional 1.0m extensions and adaptors available.
An optional extractor tool is recommended to retrieve of the Scala - this should be used to provent damage and extend the life of the Scala.
