16.- How should force be applied to the piece during the test?

-Constant

17.- To what extent should constant force be applied to the specimen?

-Until breaking point

18.- What should be done after the test?

-Tabulate the data obtained during the test

19.- What machine is used for the test?

- Universal machine

20.- How can injuries be avoided during the test?

- Using personal protective equipment

21.- Mention at least 2 personal protective equipment

-Leather gloves

-Seafety glasses

-Overalls

22.- What is the main objective of the personal protection team?

- Avoid damage to the operator

23.- Mentions an example of control material for the test

-Iron
-Concrete

-Wood

24.- mention at least 2 equipment that are used to test?

-Universal machine
-Load cell
-Vernier
-Computer

25.- What important feature must have the specimen?

-Should not be too short

26.- What is a Beam?

-It’s an effective and accurate device used for measuring the deflection of
flexible pavements under moving wheel loads.

27.- How Beams work’s?

-By measuring the rebound deflection of the road, as the truck loads the
formation, moves off and the beam measures the road returning to the
unloaded position
