Considers the interaction of web buckling, flange stiffness and vertical stiffeners. The explanation of each problem is followed by laboratory tests giving experimental support.
Uses tensile test and the impact test to illustrate some of the mechanical properties of materials, and how these properties may be changed by heat treatment or mechanical treatment. The materials tested are...
Relates the length of a reinforced concrete column and the method by which the ends are fixed to the load that it can withstand. A series of columns of different lengths, some with fixed ends and some free,...
Illustrates the relation between the shape of a reinforced concrete beam to the amount of torsion to which it can be subjected before it fails. A rectangular beam, an I-beam and an I-shaped length of mild...
Demonstration to show how a reinforced concrete beam is tested to failure in laboratory conditions.
Demonstrates methods and illustrates formulae to determine fracture toughness. The demonstrations (using polymethyl methacrylate samples) are supported by graphics and special effects that show the sample...
A variety of testing machines are demonstrated illustrating the various materials test programmes which can be undertaken in the department.
A review of various methods of strain measurement.
Shows the construction of the strain circle and stress circle from the three strain readings from a strain gauge rosette. Indicates the important values to be read from the strain and stress values, and...
A series of 10 films aiming to introduce the student to methods and instrumentation used in the laboratory for the determination of mechanical properties of engineering materials, to illustrate the behaviour...
