The BOMAG Evib meter BEM provides the first step to reducing the cost of soil compaction. The Evib meter enables the determination of a measuring magnitude directly related with the deformation modulus EV of the soil during each vibration movement and on the basis of the interrelationship between force and immersion of the roller into the ground. The measuring value is called vibration modulus Evib [MN/m²] .
The instrument is designed to assist the roller operator to compact soils and granular materials. Higher Evib values signify higher soil stiffness and a better state of compaction.
The Evib meter consits of two acceleration transducer, the BEM electronic unit and the Evib analogue display.
