Cement Tensile Testing Machine

Tensile strength of cement test procedure.
Cement tensile testing machine. Cement tensile testing machine is basically used to determine the tensile strength of briquette specimens of cement. The most comprehensive test for cement or for a mixture of it with sand is done by determining its crushing strength unfortunately it requires a very costly machine and therefore the usual practice is to use the tensile test instead which can be carried out very cheaply. The proportion is 1 3 which means that x gm of cement is mixed with 3 x gm of sand. Uniaxial tensile test id one of the difficult and complicated tests to perfume on concrete but gives the true tensile strength of concrete.
The quantity of water is 5 per cent by weight of cement and sand. We are manufacturer of tensile testing machine for cement scaks hdpe sacks and sugar packing sacks. Cement sacks tensile testing machine computerised model. The strength of hdpe woven sacks directly show on screen in kgf and newton selectable.
This is a direct tension test in which a concrete specimen is held at the ends and pulled apart inducing uniaxial tensile stress in it. Heico range of products include almost all the testing equipment generally used in the laboratories of construction organizations including solutions for cement concrete and steel bars. This machine having special type of grip to avoide slipage of hdpe woven sacks. This test is commonly used by cement manufacturers in order to determine the quality of cement.
It can also be used to test the flexure strength of the sample. Ii the water is added to the mortar. The most commonly used test equipment for cement concrete is compression testing machine or ctm as it is widely known.
