Large scale mechanical bending tests

Design by calculation is often very conservative. Direct mechanical measurements of building solutions at large-scale are necessary to optimise their costs and performances. CRM Group is equipped with a large mechanical bending test equipment:

  • For steel or composite solutions up to 15 m length over 4 m width
  • Up to 7.7 t in static pressure/suction or dynamic test and up to 20 t in static test
  • Equipped with calibrated sensors and accurate handling equipment
  • Performing standardised tests according to EN 14509, Eurocodes and more, or to create dedicated tests upon client’s requirements

Test validation by third party can be performed on request
