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.

The machine consists of a motorized load frame. The lower platen has two rollers, the distance between which is adjustable. For 150 mm x 150 mm x 700 mm beam, the centre distance between the rollers is 600 mm, while it is 400 mm for beams of size 100 mm x 100 mm x 500 mm. The upper platen has also a pair of rollers whose distance adjustable. It is 200 mm centre to centre, for 150 mm x 150 mm x 700 mm size beam and 133 mm for 100 mm x 100 mm x 500 mm size beam. Total capacity of the machine is 100 KN. 150mm dia pressure gauge of 0-100 KN x 1 KN least count to indicate load is fixed on the load frame.

A system of loading which causes section of a bar or shaft to rotate about its central longitudinal axis relatively to another such section and which thus produces twist or torsion in the bar, constitutes a torsional load. The load may be composed of forces acting in any direction but the twisting or torsional affect is provided by the couples formed by these forces in planes normal to the central axis. The torsional shearing stresses in circular cross section vary from zero at the axis of the section to a maximum value at the extreme fibres. If no bending is present pure shear exists. Torsion Testing machine Consists of two independent chucks. The twist is communicated through the test piece to the other jaw on which a weighted pendulum is attached. The resistance to deflection of pendulum causes a torque to be applied to the test piece and the angles of deflection of pendulum is the measure of torque. The machine is built for maximum twisting moment at about 50 kgm. It is equipped with jaws for accomo- dating test pieces of 10 mm, 15 mm and 20 mm size either square or circular with square shoulder.

The machine is used for testing crushed slag, crushed and uncrushed gravel for resistance to abrasion. The aim of the test is to find the percentage wear due to the relative rubbing action between the aggregates and steel balls as abrasive charge. The oven-dried arrangements are weighted and rotated along with abrasive charge in the machine for the 500 or 1000 revolutions and percentage of wear so found out its reported as Los angeles abrasion value.

Consists of a hollow steel cylinder, closed at both ends, having an inside diameter of 700mm and inside length of 500mm. The cylinder mounted on a sturdy frame on ball bearings. The opening is closed dust tight with a removable bolted cover in place. A detachable shelf which extends through the drum catches the abrasive charge and does not allow it to fall on the cover. The drum is rotated at a speed of 30-33 RPM by an electric motor through a heavy duty reduction gear. Fitted with revolution counter and push button starter. Supplied complete with a tray for collection of the material. Abrasive charge consists of set of 12 Nos. cast iron spheres or steel spheres (hardened steel balls) approximately 48mm diameter each weigh between 390-445 gram. Complete as above.
