Table 2

The test items and accuracy of the dynamic triaxial test system.

No.	Test items	Range value	Accuracy
1	Axial displacement	100 mm	Measurement resolution reaches 0.08 μm
2	Axial stress	2 kPa	Accuracy can reach 0.1%, that minimum resolution is 0.2 kPa
3	Confining stress range	3 MPa	Accuracy reaches 1 kPa
4	Back pressure range	2 MPa	Accuracy reaches 1 kPa
