This document deals with the equipment requirements, execution and reporting of field vane tests
for the measurement of peak and remoulded vane shear strength together with the sensitivity of finegrained
soils. In addition, post-peak shear strength behaviour can be evaluated. Two types of field vane
test are described: the ordinary field vane test (FVT) and the fast field vane test (FVT-F).All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
