Hardness Testing is applied to a great number of materials, and for over 250 years, it has been an invaluable and frequently used mechanical test. A variety of hardness tests can be used to establish ...

What is a Tensile Test? A tensile test pulls (or stretches) a sample and, as a result, the extensibility/elongation and tensile strength properties are measured in ...

For nearly 150 years, construction materials testing has been a manual effort. Whether in an engineering lab, a commercial lab, at cement/ready-mix manufacturers’ sites or in the field, specimens are ...

All of our testing is conducted in our lab in Reno, Nevada by experimental researchers who have the experience to develop a customized approach to the specific materials and questions you have. We ...

Compared to traditional structural materials, polymer matrix composites (PMC) offer greatly enhanced performance and flexibility. However, these benefits come at the cost of increased material ...
