Vicat's Apparatus
Vicat's Apparatus

Vicat's Apparatus is used to find out the consistency, initial setting time, and final setting time of the cement. In the normal consistency test, we have to find out the amount of water to be added to the cement to form a cement paste of normal consisten

Le Chatelier apparatus
Le Chatelier apparatus

Le Chatelier's device is used for determining the soundness of cement. Soundness tes

Slump Cone
Slump Cone

The concrete slump test measures the consistency of fresh concrete before it sets. It is performed to check the workability of freshly made concrete(as per IS :1199-1959: RA 2008.), and therefore the ease with which concrete flows. It can also be used as

Weighing machine
Weighing machine

Electronic Balances are used for weighing samples of soil, asphalt, concrete or any other material used in Matrial Testing Lab. Least Count of the machine is 0.5gms

Universal Testing Machine
Universal Testing Machine

A universal testing machine is used to test the tensile stress and compressive strength of materials.

Compression Tesing Machine
Compression Tesing Machine

The CTM machine is used to test the quality of concrete. The compressive and Flexural strength of concrete is determined by testing concrete cubes or cylinders using the CTM machine. The CTM machine is also be used to test the compressive strength of othe

Accelerated Curing Tank
Accelerated Curing Tank

A curing tank is a specialized apparatus used to provide controlled conditions for the curing of concrete specimens.

Viberation Table for Cube
Viberation Table for Cube

he Vibrating table is used to compact concrete materials inside cubes, cylinders and beam molds.

Auto Electric sieve shaker
Auto Electric sieve shaker

Sieve shakers are devices designed to help promote particle movement through a stack of sieves, facilitating accurate particle separation.

Oven
Oven

Material testing oven is used to understand how materials behave under certain conditions, particularly temperature. It simulate environments that a material might be exposed to during its lifecycle, allowing for the assessment of various properties such

Rebound Hammer
Rebound Hammer

The rebound hammer test serves as a valuable and widely used Non-destructive Tool for assessing the compressive strength of concrete.

Ultra sonic pulse velocity meter
Ultra sonic pulse velocity meter

An ultrasonic pulse velocity test is an in-situ, nondestructive test to check the quality of concrete and natural rocks. In this test, the strength and quality of concrete or rock is assessed by measuring the velocity of an ultrasonic pulse passing throug

Rebare Scanner
Rebare Scanner

Rebar locators are used to find the position of steel reinforcement bars in concrete structures and to measure their concrete cover.
