This project involves an updating and upgrading of materials testing facilities through the purchase of an universal testing instrument and associated software. The equipment primarily impacts four courses: Mechanics of Materials, Structural Engineering, Structural Behavior, and Materials of Engineering. Only the first of these courses previously had a materials testing laboratory component; the project instrumentation allowed the addition of this capability to the other three courses.
