Load Frames

Load Frames

Soil load frames are some of the most versatile and indispensable tools you can use for soil testing, as these frames can conduct many different important tests. At Forney, we offer soil test equipment and apparatus options for California Bearing Ratio (CBR), unconfined compression (UC), triaxial, Marshall, and soil cement tests, providing everything you need for a wide variety of soil evaluations.

Two of our most popular products in this category are our load frame sets, available in either 10,000 LBF or 20,000 LBF capacities. When paired with the appropriate accessories, these load frames can perform several vital soil tests, including CBR, UC, triaxial, and soil cement evaluations. Regardless of which one you choose, they come with a drive motor, a powder-coated steel cabinet, and a precision loading screw with a protective boot. The control panel makes it easy to adjust the direction and speed of the platen.

If you’re looking for Marshall test load frames, we have those as well. For instance, our fixed strain load frames can perform not only Marshall tests but also indirect tensile, semi-circular bend, and tack shear tests for hot mix asphalt samples. We have a few different models of Marshall test load frames, and you can choose from several varying minimum strain rates and pressure capacities.

If you want to perform soil tests with load frames, you’ll need accessories as well. Look no further than Forney for top-quality load rings (ranging from 500 LBF to 10,000 LBF capacities), test molds, platens of various sizes, spacer disks, dial indicators and extension points, filters, pistons, swell plates, and so much more.
