HTRX-HOEK-70-38.1-HOEK TRIAXIAL CELL FOR 38.1 mm and 6 more items

Geotechnical Consulting Testing Systems was awarded a contract by Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University on July 14, 2026, with a cumulative value of $6,664.00. The contract delivers specialized geotechnical testing equipment to Mary Jane Smith at Virginia Tech's facilities. The equipment includes two Hoek triaxial cells—one designed for 38.1 millimeter samples and one for 54.74 millimeter samples—priced at $1,095 and $2,400 respectively. Supporting the triaxial cells are modification services to both the 38 millimeter and 54.74 millimeter platens to incorporate pore pressure measurement capabilities, each valued at $500.

Additional contract deliverables include a 20 megapascal pressure transducer ($669), hydraulic hoses for system integration ($1,000), and a riser assembly designed to elevate the Hoek cells on existing laboratory apparatus ($500). These components collectively support the establishment or enhancement of geotechnical triaxial testing capabilities within Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University's laboratory infrastructure. The contract represents a complete procurement of testing apparatus and integration materials necessary for soil mechanics and rock testing operations.
