ABSTRACT:
Load cell having a body with a ball recess therein and a ball removably disposed in the recess above a strain gauge means disposed in the body centrally below the ball recess, the load cell useful in measuring samples of geologic materials, e.g., core samples and for methods and apparatuses for measuring ultrasonic velocities in materials, particularly in the triaxial testing of low permeability rock samples.
