What Is a Relative Density Test Set?<\/h2>\n

The Relative Density Test Set<\/strong> is used to evaluate the compactness of cohesionless and free-draining granular materials under laboratory conditions.<\/p>\n

Relative density compares the existing dry density of a cohesionless soil with its maximum and minimum index density values<\/strong>. This provides a practical indication of whether the material is in a loose, medium or dense condition.<\/p>\n

The method is particularly useful for materials such as sands, gravels and granular road-construction mixtures where conventional cohesive-soil consistency methods are not applicable.<\/p>\n

Vibrating Table System<\/h2>\n

The test system includes a 762 \u00d7 762 mm vibrating table<\/strong> operating at approximately 3600 rpm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The magnitude of vibration can be adjusted according to the test configuration. During maximum-density determination, vibration rearranges the granular particles and reduces the void space between them.<\/p>\n

As the particles move into a denser arrangement, the specimen volume decreases. This allows the laboratory to evaluate the maximum dry density achievable under the specified vibratory conditions.<\/p>\n

Liya Test supplies the vibrating table together with the required mould and measurement components.<\/p>\n

0.5 ft\u00b3 and 0.1 ft\u00b3 Mould Options<\/h2>\n

The LT-S4253 EN configuration<\/strong> includes an approximately 14,200 cm\u00b3 \/ 0.5 ft\u00b3 Relative Density Mould Set<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The LT-S4254 ASTM-type configuration<\/strong> additionally includes a 0.1 ft\u00b3 mould<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The main cylindrical mould components are manufactured from cast aluminium. The different mould capacities allow the equipment arrangement to accommodate the corresponding EN and historical ASTM test procedures.<\/p>\n

Relative Density Gauge Set<\/h2>\n

After vibration, the change in specimen height must be measured accurately to determine the volume change.<\/p>\n

The Relative Density Gauge Set includes a dial indicator with approximately 50.8 mm travel<\/strong> and 0.025 mm graduations<\/strong>, together with a dedicated mould holder and a 76 \u00d7 305 \u00d7 3.2 mm calibration bar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This arrangement helps determine the distance between the mould reference surface and the compacted specimen after vibration.<\/p>\n

Pouring Funnel Set<\/h2>\n

Loose placement is important when determining the minimum index density of granular material.<\/p>\n

The available pouring funnel arrangement contains two \u00d8152 \u00d7 305 mm metal cylinders<\/strong> fitted with delivery spouts. The outlet diameters are 25.4 mm and 12.7 mm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The system supports controlled placement of granular materials without intentional compaction. Liya Test notes that this accessory arrangement was required under the former ASTM D4253 procedure and should be ordered separately where needed.<\/p>\n

EN 13286-5:2003<\/h2>\n

The current European reference is EN 13286-5:2003<\/strong>. Its British adoption, BS EN 13286-5:2003<\/strong>, is still listed by BSI as Current<\/strong> in 2026. The standard covers laboratory reference density and water-content determination using a vibrating table for unbound and hydraulically bound mixtures.<\/p>\n

The method applies to materials containing up to 12% by mass below 0.063 mm<\/strong> and permits a maximum particle size of 80 mm<\/strong>, as reflected in Liya’s product description.<\/p>\n

ASTM D4253 and ASTM D4254 Status<\/h2>\n

Liya’s existing product page still references ASTM D4253 and ASTM D4254<\/strong>. However, this needs a note on the new website.<\/p>\n

ASTM D4253-16e1<\/strong> was withdrawn in 2025 without replacement<\/strong>. ASTM also lists D4254-16<\/strong> as withdrawn in 2025.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the LT-S4254 configuration can still be described as equipment designed around the former ASTM test arrangement, but we should not write \u201ccomplies with the current ASTM D4253\/D4254 standards.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Overall, the Relative Density Test Set<\/strong> combines a vibrating table, interchangeable mould configurations and precision measurement accessories to support laboratory evaluation of the compactness and density characteristics of cohesionless granular materials.<\/p>\n
