In a “triaxial compression test”, different load machines are used depending on the compression force needed to perform the tests. The load machines available are:
- 25 kN
- 100 kN
- 1000 kN
- 3000 kN
These loading machines are suitable for performing triaxial compression tests in accordance with the ISRM (International Society for Rock Mechanics) recommendations and MSZ 18285/3-79.
