Vicat's Apparatus is used to find out the consistency, initial setting time, and final setting time of the cement. In the normal consistency test, we have to find out the amount of water to be added to the cement to form a cement paste of normal consistency.

Le Chatelier's device is used for determining the soundness of cement. Soundness tes

The concrete slump test measures the consistency of fresh concrete before it sets. It is performed to check the workability of freshly made concrete(as per IS :1199-1959: RA 2008.), and therefore the ease with which concrete flows. It can also be used as an indicator of an improperly mixed batch

Electronic Balances are used for weighing samples of soil, asphalt, concrete or any other material used in Matrial Testing Lab. Least Count of the machine is 0.5gms

A universal testing machine is used to test the tensile stress and compressive strength of materials.

The CTM machine is used to test the quality of concrete. The compressive and Flexural strength of concrete is determined by testing concrete cubes or cylinders using the CTM machine. The CTM machine is also be used to test the compressive strength of other materials such as bricks, rocks, tile,cement cubes etc.

A curing tank is a specialized apparatus used to provide controlled conditions for the curing of concrete specimens.

he Vibrating table is used to compact concrete materials inside cubes, cylinders and beam molds.

Sieve shakers are devices designed to help promote particle movement through a stack of sieves, facilitating accurate particle separation.

Material testing oven is used to understand how materials behave under certain conditions, particularly temperature. It simulate environments that a material might be exposed to during its lifecycle, allowing for the assessment of various properties such as thermal endurance, moisture resistance, aging characteristics, and chemical changes.

This Apparatus is used to determine aggregate impact value of coarse aggregate.

Moudls are used to make concrete/cement/rcc sample for testing

Used to trasport the Material for mixing and to construction site.

Used for lifting the Heavy weight basd on Pascal,s law.

Specific Gravity Bench allows easy suspended weighing of samples in water for relative density determinations of aggregates, hardened concrete, bituminous mixtures, refractory brick, and similar materials

For Crushing of Aggregates so that it can be further separated into Coarse and Fine using Sieves.

The rebound hammer test serves as a valuable and widely used Non-destructive Tool for assessing the compressive strength of concrete.

An ultrasonic pulse velocity test is an in-situ, nondestructive test to check the quality of concrete and natural rocks. In this test, the strength and quality of concrete or rock is assessed by measuring the velocity of an ultrasonic pulse passing through a concrete structure or natural rock formation.

Rebar locators are used to find the position of steel reinforcement bars in concrete structures and to measure their concrete cover.
