Concrete and Metal Materials Testing

Course:ÌýCVEN 3161 - Mechanics of Materials, and CVEN 4161/5161 – Mechanics of Materials II

Year:Ìý´¡²Ô²Ô³Ü²¹±ô±ô²â

Participants: Undergraduate and graduate students, Prof. Yunping Xi and Prof. Mija Hubler

Summary: CIEST assists Mechanics of Materials I and II in their practical labs. various metal and concrete samples are tested under various loading scenarios as groups of students observe. This gives students a real-world connection to their studies.
