R&D / FLEXIBLE DILATOMETER PRD
Developed: 2007-2008
Registered as Utility model nº 201130400
Collaborators: Romero OH
The PRD pressure-dilatometer was developed entirely by Igeotest R&D. The device allows management and automation of testing and calibration, as well as the storage in electronic format and transmission via e-mail of the data obtained.
