The primary activities include experimental studies on model structural elements and assemblies under various static and dynamic loading conditions. The laboratory is well equipped with advanced machines for testing metals /materials for its strength, stiffness, hardness, toughness, stability aspects and other engineering applications. The laboratory is well equipped with steel loading frame (50 tons) to conduct tests on slabs, beams, frames, walls and columns on a larger scale. The mechanical properties testing equipment includes universal testing machines with a capacity of 40 tons and a compression testing machine of 200 tons to conduct tests on various building materials.The testing machines of the laboratory are periodically maintained, serviced and calibrated by approved laboratories / agencies. The laboratory also has separate working space for conducting classes and documentation. This laboratory is used by three departments (Agriculture engineering, Civil engineering & Mechanical engineering) and research work is also carried out in this laboratory.
