Concrete Flexural Strength Testing Machine

Flexural test device for concrete beams.

Concrete flexural strength testing machine.

A spacer is provided for testing different size of beams and load is indicated on a digital indicator. Test for beam flexure or strength in materials with failure below 30 000 lbf. Temperature changes ground vibrations cyclic loading of road pavements and many other external influences will set up internal stresses within a concrete member. As modulus of rupture in mpa the flexural strength is expressed and by standard test methods astm c78 third point loading or astm c293 center point loading it is determined.

The 370 mm vertical daylight can easily obtained removing the lower platen of the compression tester. Flexural testing machine these machines are designed to test the flexural strength of concrete beams. Their design provides maximum rigidity throughout their working range as the downward movement of the piston applies load. With a span length at least three times the depth flexural strength of concrete is measured by loading 6 x 6 inch 150 x 150mm concrete beams.

Forney flexural beam testers are the most versatile machines in the industry. 370 mm when adjusted for 150 mm beams and 320 mm for 100 mm beams. Strength testing compressive or flexural strength of concrete is easily measured in a number of ways for different types of specimens. Backed by the best technical support team in the industry.

Gilson compression testing machines are the stiffest in the industry and meet or exceed astm c39 requirements and aci 368 recommendations for rigidity. Movement of strucutres which may be induced by e g. Spares kits for flexural machines. The flexural and transverse strength of concrete is of interest to engineers for many reasons.
