Description (If Applicable}


Material Testing Set of Sieves A mesh strainer, also
Laboratory A103 known as sift,
commonly known
as sieve, is a device for
separating ...
Wooden sieves[edit]. A
wooden mesh in which the withes were
one eighth of an inch wide and set the
same distance apart.

Vicat Apparatus a device for


determining the normal
consistency and time of
setting of port land
cements that consists
of a rod weighing 300
grams, having a needle
in each end, and
supported in a frame with a graduated
scale to measure the distance to which
the needle penetrates the cement.
Gilmore apparatus Used to determine initial and final set
times of Portland cement, masonry
cement, hydraulic hydrated lime and
certain mortars. Comprised of two
stainless steel needles with 0.0375"
(4.8mm) cylindrical flat-end needles. One
is 1/12" (2.12mm) dia. 1/4lb. (113.4g)
weight for initial set. The second is 1/24"
(1.06mm) dia., 1lb (453.6g) weight for
final set.
Slump Test Apparatus The slump cone having
dimension as (ID-100mm
at top ID- 200mm at
bottom & length 300mm)
is filled with freshly mixed
concrete and is tamped
with a tamping bar in four layers. The top
of the concrete is levelled off with the top
of the slump cone, the cone is lifted
vertically up and the slump of the sample
is immediately measured.Slump Test
Apparatus is with testing rod & base plate.

Ovens An oven is a thermally insulated
chamber used for the heating,
baking, or drying of a substance,
and most commonly used for
cooking.
Marshall stability Marshall Stability Test Equipment is
Apparatus used by highway departments,
contractors, engineers, testing
laboratories and other government
agencies to test the stability of
bituminous samples.
Penetration Apparatus
for Bituminous Penetration Test Apparatus are used for
Materials testing bitumen, tar, cement and
soils. A Chosen force is applied
over a given area for a known
period of time and the depth
of penetration or the depression
made in the sample is measured in
tenths of a millimeter which is
expressed as a penetration number

Concrete Mixer A concrete mixer (often


colloquially called a cement mixer)
is a device that homogeneously
combines cement, aggregate such as
sand or gravel, and water to
form concrete. A typical concrete mixer uses a
revolving drum to mix the components. 

Concrete Vibration Vibrating is a critical step on


many concrete construction
projects. When concrete is poured,
it might have hundreds or even
thousands of air bubbles, which can
substantially weaken
the concrete structure. Concrete vibrators
eliminate air bubbles by vigorously shaking the
freshly poured concrete.
Digital Concrete Test This digital concrete test
Hammer hammer, microprocessor
operated, entirely designed and
manufactured by Matest with
advanced technology, performs
basic concrete testing with continuous
automatic recording of all parameters in
accordance with EN 12504-2 Specifications,
register and process data and then transfer them
to a PC The unit consists of the standard
mechanical model C380, but equipped with an
electronic transducer that measures the rebound
values and supplies automatically the results on a
graphic display.
Specific Gravity Bench Specific Gravity (Relative
Tank Density) Bench allows easy
suspended weighing of samples
in water for relative density
determinations of aggregates,
hardened concrete, bituminous
mixtures, refractory brick and
similar materials.

High Capacity Precision High capacity precision balances


Balance for industrial and commercial
applications. These are very
expensive balances used in
aggregate, pharmaceutical,
chemical and adhesive
formulation applications.

Los Angeles Abrasion The Los Angeles Abrasion


Machine Machine is used for determination
of the aggregates resistance to
fragmentation. The machine
consists of an electronic control
unit and a rolled steel drum having
an inside diameter of 711 mm and
internal length of 508 mm.

Air Entrainment
Apparatus
 Air Entrainment Meter is
used to measure the air
content of freshly mixed ... to
last and would become the
new work horses of your
testing equipment.
Universal Testing A universal testing machine, also
Machine UTM known as a universal tester,
materials testing machine or
materials test frame, is used to
test the tensile strength and
compressive strength of materials.
An earlier name for a tensile
testing machine is a tensometer.

Water Bath A water bath is laboratory


equipment made from a
container filled with
heated water. It is used
to incubate samples in
water at a constant
temperature over a long
period of time.

Ultrasonic Pulse An ultrasonic pulse


Velocity Apparatus velocity (UPV) 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 through a
concrete structure or natural rock formation.
Flow Table Apparatus Flow tables are used
for determining
consistency (flow)
and for preparing
mortars of standard
consistency for
testing. Flow is
determined as percent
increase in diameter
of a conically-molded
mortar.
