Materials Testing Facilities
All structural systems require the use of specialized materials selected by
civil engineers and architects. These materials can include: metals, wood,
concrete, asphalt, and soil. The Materials Testing Laboratory contains two
MTS load frames for conducting experiments and analysis on these and other
materials. For example, equipment in the Materials Testing Laboratory can be
used to test concrete for strength. The department also uses this equipment
to support local industry.
