Testing solutions for civil engineering and geomechanic applications

摘要

Instron~R, a leading provider of testing equipment designed to evaluate the mechanical properties of materials and components, offers a complete line of testing solutions for the civil engineering and geomechanic industries. Designed for the most rugged applications, the company's materials testing equipment and simulation systems are used for evaluating structures, asphalt, concrete and structural steel. These systems provide a high level of data integrity, accuracy and operator safety. Ranging up to capacities in excess of 20MN (5,000,000lbf), Instron's high force capacity testing systems determine tensile, compression and bending properties. With ultra-high stiff frames, these systems are specifically designed to detect the first partial crack in a specimen. This is crucial to testing the high-strength brittle materials used in civil engineering applications.
