Corn Penetrometer S-217 (Nishinihon Testing Machine) Rental
Soft clay and weak ground are optimal, and it is useful to measure the approximate cohesion and depth of cohesive soil with wind speed to understand the outline of the ground profile.
It is the easiest to operate portable static cone penetration tester, which measures the penetration resistance required to push the tip cone statically into the ground by hand using a proving ring, allowing for the estimation of the relative strength, cohesion, unconfined compressive strength, and allowable bearing capacity of cohesive soils. It is most suitable for weak ground primarily composed of soft clay, silt, or peat, and is useful for measuring the approximate cohesion of cohesive soils and depth in relation to wind speed, as well as for gaining an overview of the ground profile.

Applications/Examples of results
This is the simplest and most portable static cone penetration tester, which measures the penetration resistance required to statically push the tip cone into the ground by hand using a proving ring. It is used to estimate the relative strength, cohesion, unconfined compressive strength, and allowable bearing capacity of cohesive soils. It is optimal for weak ground primarily composed of soft clay, silt, or peat, and is useful for measuring the approximate cohesion and depth of cohesive soils in relation to wind speed, as well as for understanding the general profile of the ground.
