Description

Testometric provides industry-standard test systems for evaluating the performance of Glass Reinforced Concrete (GRC) materials. These systems feature specialized test fixtures and advanced software developed in collaboration with leading suppliers to ensure compliance with relevant international standards. The systems calculate key values including LOP (Loss of Performance), MOR (Modulus of Rupture), Ym (Young’s Modulus), and I values (Impact Resistance).

Typical Test Standards:

  • BS 6342: Specification for GRC materials.
  • EN 1170-4: Testing of GRC – Determination of the Modulus of Rupture.
  • EN 1170-5: Testing of GRC – Determination of the Young’s Modulus.
  • ASTM C 1230: Standard Specification for Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete.
  • ASTM C 947-03: Standard Test Method for Flexural Strength of Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete.

These solutions are designed to ensure that GRC materials meet stringent performance standards, offering reliable testing for the construction and architectural industries.
