Balanced 500/500 kN Capacity

Independent normal and shear loading covers a wide range of intact rock, discontinuity, and interface test programs.

Controlled Shear Rate

The 0.03–4 mm/min horizontal rate range supports staged loading and displacement-controlled shear workflows.

Six-Channel Data Acquisition

Load and displacement channels are displayed, stored, zeroed, and calibrated through the integrated computer workflow.

Application & Search Guide

Testing Method

Rock joint, weak-plane, and interface direct shear testing

LS-RM-DS500 500 kN Servo Rock Direct Shear System is a rock direct shear testing system for intact rock, joints, bedding planes, weak layers, fault materials, and rock-concrete interfaces under ISRM Suggested Methods. It supports slope, tunnel, dam, mining, and foundation laboratories that need controlled normal loading with synchronized shear force and displacement measurement.
