Fugro Purchase Custom-Built Rock Testing System

Mike Bulley, GDS Head of Systems Support, recently installed a custom-built 1MN Load Frame with a 64 MPa Triaxial Cell at Fugro Geoservices in Consett, Durham, U.K.

This system has been setup specifically for 50mm rock samples. The equipment has been bought to expand on the types of testing Fugro are able to offer when tendering for projects. Fugro Geoservices is planning on expanding this system further, with an upgrade of Acoustic Velocity in the coming months.
