Featured Video Clip (Concrete Fail)

ISE performing load testing of concrete test specimens to determine its axial compressive failure characteristics.

In this example, you can see quite dramatically how concrete fails under a compressive load. Once the ultimate stress is reached, the load carrying capacity of the material rapidly drops off producing the fracturing seen in the video.
