DESTRUCTIVE TESTING

By placing test specimens under strenuous loads and conditions, destructive testing allows for the determination of the parts' properties, service life, and design weaknesses. In order to provide the best results, Amron offers a wide range of destructive testing methods.  

    IN-HOUSE DESTRUCTIVE TESTING METHODS

    TENSILE

    TOUGHNESS

    HARDNESS

    ( 120,000 lb. testing capacity)

    By subjecting a test specimen to a controlled load until failure, the yield points, ultimate tensile strength, and measures of ductility are determined.

    • ASTM E8​

    HARDNESS

    TOUGHNESS

    HARDNESS

      (Brinell • Rockwell)

    ​By subjecting a test specimen to a fixed load and indenter, hardness tests measure the materials' hardness by revealing the specimens ability to resist indentation.

    • ASTM E10

    ​• ASTM E18

    TOUGHNESS

    TOUGHNESS

    TOUGHNESS

      (Charpy V-Notch - 264ft-lb) 

    By striking a notched specimen with a fixed weighted pendulum, the toughness (energy absorbed per unit area during fraction) is determined.

    ​• ASTM E23

    SOUNDNESS

    METALLOGRAPHIC

    TOUGHNESS

      (Bend • Nick-Break • Fillet Weld Break) 

    Soundness tests are used to examine the quality of an individual weld.

    • ASTM E290

    ​• ASTM E190

    METALLOGRAPHIC

    METALLOGRAPHIC

    METALLOGRAPHIC

      (Macro • Micro)

    ​Metallurgical tests are used to determine the microstucture, internal discontinuities, and weld profiles of a test specimen. 

    CONCRETE

    METALLOGRAPHIC

    METALLOGRAPHIC

      

    Concrete compressive testing (cylinders).

    • ASTM C39
