Bending Test Report for Engineering Materials

The document summarizes a bending test experiment conducted on a beam specimen made of 9sMn28 material. The objective was to investigate the relationship between load and deflection of a beam under a three-point bending test and determine mechanical properties like bending strength and elastic modulus. The experiment measured deflection under increasing loads and recorded the results in a table. Calculations were made using the results. Examples given of how bending properties are important for engineering applications include choosing building materials, bridge design, and car design.

Introduction
Bend or flexure testing is common in springs and brittle materials
whose failure behaviors are linear such as concretes, stones,
woods, plastics, glasses and ceramics. Other types of brittle
materials such as powder metallurgy processed metals and
materials are normally tested under a transverse flexure. Bend
test is therefore suitable for evaluating strength of brittle materials
where interpretation of tensile test result of the same material is
difficult due to breaking of specimens around specimen
gripping
Theory :
In bending test a smooth rectangular specimens without notches
are generally used under three-point or four-point bend
arrangements as shown in Fig. 3-1"a" and"b" respectively.

• Materials and apparatus used


: 1-The specimen .
2- The testing machine .
•The Procedures of work :
1- determined thedimension of
the specimen and recorded .
2- touched the specimen and zeroing the testing
machine .
3- Appli
ed different loaded and record value of ( exp )

in millimeter and matchable to every load .


4- record the results in the table below then using
the result to make the required calculation .

• The discussion :
1- what do you expect if the bending
experiment has been carried out at elevated
temperature ?
If the bending test carried out at elevated temperature the condition of
the experiment has been changed and the properties of bending changed
such as the strain increased because the ductile of the material
increased in the elevated temperature and changed and
Changed due to the increased of temperature .

2- give three example of


engineeringapplications which involve bending
properties of the material ?
1- when choosing building materials ,the
bending properties is very important .
Building structures will be influenced by wind .considering about the
bending properties is vital for building safety .
2-when building bridges ,the bending property is the most important
factor for the safety .there will be large loading force on the
bridge so what material can hold the force without deformation is the
first thing consider .
3-when designed cars ,what weight can be tolerated is depend on
the bending properties of materials .
