Abstract
The construction and operation of a semiautomatic modulus of rupture tester for determining the modulus of rupture up to 2400°C in either vacuum or inert atmospheres are described. One of the unique features of the apparatus is its ability to test up to 18 specimens without being reloaded. This paper includes a description of the auxiliary equipment used in conjunction with the tester and a typical curve of modulus of rupture against temperature obtained with this tester.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
