Structural Testing
The structural testing equipment enables an almost unlimited number of different wooden and hybrid structures to be tested on an industrial scale and close to actual building component assemblies.
First-class equipment and professional service
Designed to serve business needs!
We offer a comprehensive range of services in a customer-oriented and flexible manner.
Testing service for full-scale wall elements, beams, joints and lattice structures.
Equipment showcase
LoadFrame (large-scale test frame)
- Testing area (T-slot) 5 m x 15 m. Load Frame dimensions: width 2.5 m, height 3.5 m. Full-scale wall elements, beams, joints and lattice structures can be tested.
- Possible tests for Load Frame are static or dynamic loads: 2 x max 500 kN load from above up to 2 Hz (compression or tension) and 1 x max 500 kN from side. Static loads include tension, compression and shear loads. Dynamic loading can be used for simulations, such as vibration in structures.
