The ability of a material to resist indentation or penetration is called Hardness. To test the hardness of any material is simply forcing an indentor into the surface of the metal by applying the load. There are different methods are developed to test this hardness. In this article, we are going to discuss one of the […]
What are the Non-Destructive testing methods?
The components that we design and engineering should satisfy the service and the requirement. For that, engineers make sure that the finished product should be tested before it is going to be installed and start functioning. Engineers employed few testing methods both destructive and the non-destructive tests of the materials. Let’s discuss what are the […]
Universal Testing Machine – Construction and Working principle
The behaviour of the material can be tested by different testing methods, with the help of testing machines. The universal testing machine is a material testing machine used for static testing such as a tensile test or compressive test. It is also known as UTM. In this article, we have discussed the construction and the working principle […]
How the Impact Test is conducted?
In the previous tutorial, we have discussed the list of Material Testing Methods, and in this tutorial, we are going to discuss how to conduct the Impact Test. The behaviour of the material under dynamic loading is entirely different from the behaviour of the material under the static loading. The material may have high strengths but when it comes […]
How the Direct Shear Test is conducted?
In the previous tutorial, we have discussed the list of Material Testing Methods, and in this tutorial, we are going to discuss how to conduct the Direct Shear Test. Direct Shear Test The shear test is conducted to measure the shear strength of the material. Shear strength test comes under the destructive test where we apply the gradually increased load up to […]
