2) Indirect tensile strength attachment for 4" & 6":

Compliance Standards:

• ASTM D6931, AASHTO T283

Principle:

• The Indirect Tensile Strength is determined by measuring the ultimate load to failure of a specimen, which is subjected to a constant deformation rate of 50.8 mm/minute on its diametrical axis according to ASTM D6931.

Apparatus details:
