Flexure Testing Machine
Although generally not such an important property of concrete than compressive strength, tensile strength values are often important to know when the concrete used free of reinforcement and may be subjected to some tensile force. The test method essentially involves applying a load at the centre of a beam of concrete supported at its ends. The load required to break the specimen is then recorded.
A separate electrically cum hand operated pumping unit housed in a cabinet is supplied. On/Off switch and a slow/fast lever to control rate of loading are fitted on the front panel of the pumping unit. A facility for hand operation is provided. A micro switch and relay fitted inside the pressure gauge protect the unit from over loading.
Hand operated version consists of a load frame. A small hand pumping unit is attached to the load frame. Since this is a hand operated light weight machine. It is useful for field laboratory also.
