1.0 OBJECTIVE This experiment deals with determination of rock strength when a certain load implied on the rocks. Students should be able conducted the experiment‚ understanding the theory and recognize the rock strength on different types of rocks in Malaysia. 2.0 LEARNING OUTCOMES a) To determine a rock strength on different types of rock formation in Malaysia. b) To evaluate the physical properties of rocks for civil engineering application. c) To understand the theory rock

Abstract This experiment will explain what the Rockwell hardening test is and why it is used‚ how the experiment was conducted‚ data that was found‚ and the importance of testing the hardness of materials. This experiment explains and proves how the hardness of materials can be increased by alloying and heat treating. Intro – Rockwell Hardness Testing Soft and hard qualities exist in materials. In materials‚ hardness measures the ability of a material to resist scratching‚ indentation‚ or penetration

What are two strengths you have? How can these strengths help LSW’s student council? What are two of your weaknesses? How can student council help you grow in those areas? I used to be what some might call a shy child. In elementary school up until 4th grade I spent recess sitting alone‚ not interacting with others. I never worked toward doing what I wanted to do. Never standing my ground. Thankfully‚ I have grown in my ability to stand my ground. One of my strengths is being strong willed. Character

under the constraint of different process parameters like mould firing temperature‚ pouring temperature‚ firing time and mixing of silica sand of different grain fineness numbers to investigate their effects on the surface hardness‚ impact strength and tensile strength of the final castings. The variations in the trend of the aforesaid mechanical properties were observed and it was deduced out that high mould firing temperature‚ higher pouring temperature‚ maximum firing time and high grain fineness number

loads are transferred by grain-to-grain contact of the aggregate through the granular structure. The flexible pavement‚ having less flexural strength‚ acts like a flexible sheet (e.g. bituminous road). On the contrary‚ in rigid pavements‚ wheel loads are transferred to sub-grade soil by flexural strength of the pavement and the pavement acts like a rigid plate (e.g. cement concrete roads). In addition to these‚ composite pavements are also available. A thin

Materials that better suit a specified use. This lab tested two materials mild steel and cast iron. The data from each test was used to determine valuable material properties such as ultimate tensile strength‚ modulus of elasticity‚ and yield strength. Other calculated properties included true fracture strength‚ percent reduction of area‚ and percent elongation. These material properties were used to define the material as brittle or ductile. INTRODUCTION: Mechanical testing plays an important role

When the training becomes boring‚ the athletes don’t perform their best and are limiting their skills because neither their body nor their brain is being stimulated‚ these activities should encourage their interest 2.
