| Keywords: StructuralTesting 016.jpg The Emery Testing Machine had a capacity of 2 300 000 pounds in compression and 1 150 000 pounds in tension and could accomodate specimens up to 30 feet in length The advantages of the horizontal testing machine were that it simplified the application of side loads in column testing made examination of specimens easier and offset the need for high bay areas An unusal feature of the machine was its high sensitivity It could detect and read out deformation due to compression or tension within 20 pounds National Institute of Standards and Technology National Institute of Standards and Technology PD-USGov-NIST PD-USGov National Bureau of Standards National Institute of Standards and Technology Structural engineering Materials test Compression testing | ||||
