Cylinder Mold Vibrating Table Apparatus

Used for making roller-compacted concrete in cylinder molds using a vibrating table. This practice is used when the standard procedures of rodding and internal vibration are not practicable. The unit is comprised of a vibrating table, which can be bolted to a floor or substantial base slab. A swing arm with guide sleeve for the 20 lb (9kg) surcharge weight is attached to the base, which allows the weight to swing out of the way when filling the mold, but allows easy application of the weight to the top of the specimen in the mold prior to vibration. The test mold is a 6″ x 12″ mold conforming to ASTM C470 and is locked into place on the base of the unit.
