Corporate Resource Group - Concrete Testing Equipment

Flexural tests of concrete beam have their own importance in concrete Road Constructions as well as Buildings constructions. Normally concrete beams of sizes 10cm x 10cm x 50 cm or 15cm x 15cm 70cm are tested for flexural strength.

Digital Models available

One of the durability tests of concrete is to determine permeability of water through specimen. Permeability apparatus is used for determining the permeability of cement mortar and concrete specimens of 15cm cubes cast in the laboratory.

The apparatus is supplied with a measuring cylinder 500 cc to measure percolated quantity of water. Pressure can also be applied by a pressure air line or by a compressor.

The apparatus is used for determining the workability of fresh concrete, provided the maximum size of the aggregate does not exceed 38mm.

Alkali-Silica Reaction (ASR) is a reaction in concrete between the alkali hydroxides and certain types of aggregate. Expansion processes due to ASR are of high importance in regards on cracking formation and thus on durability of infrastructure. For ensuring durable construction accelerated testing at 60 C

In this test chamber concrete specimen are stored at a temperature between 20 C and 65 C at nearly 100% rel. Humidity for testing aggregate combinations using concrete prisms. The temperature is displayed.

ASR machine :

Stainless steel inside resistant to corrosion inner bath welded in protective gasPerfect insulation to ensure that the outside temperature does not exceed 30 C

Very small temperature deviation
