A new three-axis loading frame has been developed to enable real-time visualization of in situsoil and rock structure interactions via X-ray tomography during small-scale model testing. Theconstructed frame is capable of performing a wide range of small-scale 1g tests and can accommodatemonotonic and cyclic actuation under both load and displacement control. Thecompact size of the system enables remote multi-axis operation from within an X-raycone-beam scanning bay, a capability which is owed to a comprehensive design process.Design and fabrication involved a blend of physical and numerical experiments to assess suitableconstruction materials and performance. In this scope, the new equipment is discussedand its capability is showcased.
