Stepped Loading Rock Test Equipment

Stepped Loading provides a means to increase the specimen axial load, whilst maintaining a constant back pressure and measuring the back (pore) volume change. Please note: Some apparatus may require additional components or software modules to perform certain tests.

The following rock test equipment can perform the Stepped Loading rock test:-
