3. LABORATORY TESTS USED TO STUDY THE STRENGTH OF CALCARENITES There are 3 distinct methods or tests used to determine the strength of calcarenite which are needle penetration test‚ unconfined compression test‚ and direct shear box test. 3.1. Needle penetration test This form of test is done on site on an outcrop rock that is not disturbed; this is usually done by extracting a sample material for oncoming laboratory work. The penetration tests are done on two different sections of outcrop with an

The Charpy impact test‚ also known as the Charpy V-notch test‚ is a high strain-rate test which determines the amount of energy absorbed by a material during fracture. The Charpy test specimens were made according to the dimensions of standard ASTM A370. One of the main reasons for concern for natural composites laminates generally is the low values

To test the aptitude of the person‚ it requires manual dexterity whereby a joint in a person’s arm is controlled and predetermined stress in which the direction of the arm and the joint moves will lead to the deflection and it will be measured (Wagner‚ 1977). This experiment is widely known all over the world and it is usually used especially to capture the motor performance in a variety of situations. According to Bryden and Roy (2005)‚ they did the study to examine the influences of handedness

potassium chloride. However‚ we had another four additional solutions‚ which had unknown chemical composition. Thus leading us to the guiding question of the lab: what are the identities of the unknown solutions? We conducted this flame test in order to quantitatively test for the presence of certain metals in a chemical solution. When the solution we

When one drop of the unknown liquid was added to about 2 mL of water‚ the sample was tested to be soluble due to the dissolubility between the two compounds. By following the chart that was given on the sheet‚ the pH of the solution was tested. Since the two litmus did not changed color‚ the sample was identify to have a low molecular weight and a neutral substance. Based on the solubility test‚ some possible

The experiment was separated into four stages‚ the first being preparation of cell competency. In this stage two vials were placed in ice baths‚ one vial containing 50 µL of E. coli and the other containing a CaCl2 solution. 630 µL of the CaCl2 solution was then transferred to the E. coli vial‚ using a sterile pipet. After tapping the tube to mix the solution‚ it was then returned to the ice bath to continue incubation for at least 10 minutes. The cell competency preparation was carried out by the
