The Flexural Apparatus is a durable galvanized-steel system designed to perform highly accurate 3-point and 4-point flexural tests on concrete beam specimens. Built to support concrete beams measuring 100 × 100 × 500 mm and 150 × 150 × 750 mm, this apparatus ensures precise and repeatable testing performance. Fully aligned with recognized test standards—including EN 12390-5, ASTM C78, ASTM C293, AASHTO T97, and BS 1881:118—the Flexural Apparatus provides a dependable solution for evaluating the flexural behavior of concrete beams in laboratory environments.
This testing accessory is engineered for consistent loading distribution, structural stability, and dependable operation. As an essential component of any concrete testing laboratory, it delivers the accuracy required for high-quality flexural strength analysis.
The Flexural Apparatus is specifically designed to accommodate two common concrete beam specimen sizes: 100 × 100 × 500 mm and 150 × 150 × 750 mm. These dimensions are widely used for laboratory flexural testing, making the apparatus compatible with standard testing routines for construction materials. Whether technicians perform 3-point or 4-point loading, the apparatus supports proper placement of the beam and ensures even distribution of force throughout the test.
Constructed from galvanized steel, the Flexural Apparatus offers excellent durability and resistance to corrosion. This manufacturing choice helps maintain dimensional accuracy and structural integrity over repeated testing cycles. The result is an apparatus that stands up to continuous laboratory use while maintaining consistent alignment, stability, and performance.
The purpose of the Flexural Apparatus is to provide a reliable method for evaluating the flexural strength of concrete beams. By supporting both 3-point and 4-point loading arrangements, the apparatus allows technicians to study beam behavior under different stress distributions. Whether the goal is general quality control or detailed research analysis, the Flexural Apparatus ensures dependable test results.
Flexural testing plays an essential role in assessing the performance of concrete beams under tensile stresses. The Flexural Apparatus is aligned with leading international standards, including EN 12390-5, ASTM C78, ASTM C293, AASHTO T97, and BS 1881:118. These standards define the method, loading arrangement, and testing procedure for evaluating flexural strength, ensuring that laboratories can confidently perform compliant testing.
By supporting the loading requirements defined in these standards, the Flexural Apparatus helps ensure uniformity in testing conditions and reliable interpretation of results. Its galvanized steel structure provides a stable foundation for applying load through either 3-point or 4-point methods, creating predictable loading paths across the beam specimen.
Because the apparatus is designed specifically to meet these standardized requirements, it supports consistent laboratory practices and enhances testing accuracy. This is particularly important for laboratories performing routine quality control, research evaluations, or comparative beam analysis.
The Flexural Apparatus supports both 3-point and 4-point flexural loading configurations. Each method provides valuable insights into beam performance:
3-Point Loading:
This configuration applies load at a single central point on the specimen. The Flexural Apparatus positions the beam securely so the load is applied precisely at the midpoint. This method is widely used for assessing general flexural behavior and determining the modulus of rupture.
4-Point Loading:
In this configuration, load is applied at two points, creating a constant moment region between the loading points. The Flexural Apparatus supports accurate placement of these two loading points and ensures equal load distribution. This method is useful for studying bending performance over a larger region of the beam.
The flexibility to switch between these loading arrangements makes the Flexural Apparatus an essential tool for comprehensive flexural testing.
