Cement Tensile Testing Machine

Heico range of products include almost all the testing equipment generally used in the laboratories of construction organizations including solutions for cement concrete and steel bars.

Cement tensile testing machine.

This is a direct tension test in which a concrete specimen is held at the ends and pulled apart inducing uniaxial tensile stress in it. Iii the mortar is placed in briquette moulds. It can also be used to test the flexure strength of the sample. The most comprehensive test for cement or for a mixture of it with sand is done by determining its crushing strength unfortunately it requires a very costly machine and therefore the usual practice is to use the tensile test instead which can be carried out very cheaply.

Cement tensile testing machine is basically used to determine the tensile strength of briquette specimens of cement. The quantity of water is 5 per cent by weight of cement and sand. Uniaxial tensile test id one of the difficult and complicated tests to perfume on concrete but gives the true tensile strength of concrete. I the mortar of cement and sand is prepared.

Cement sacks tensile testing machine computerised model. Ii the water is added to the mortar. The proportion is 1 3 which means that x gm of cement is mixed with 3 x gm of sand. Cement is usually subjected to compressive stresses when used in the form of concrete or mortar.

This machine having special type of grip to avoide slipage of hdpe woven sacks. Tensile strength of cement test procedure. The most commonly used test equipment for cement concrete is compression testing machine or ctm as it is widely known.
