Abstract

The handout entitled : “Guided practical work The material strength 2nd Year ”presented by Dr. BOUALLEG Saïda from the Department of Civil Engineering - Université Mohamed Boudiaf de M’sila, The aim of this handout is to put into practice the various basic concepts covered in the strength of materials course. This educational document is divided into six chapters. The first deals with the tensile test, which consists in subjecting a specimen to an elongation load until failure. The second chapter studies the behavior of a concrete specimen under the influence of increasing compressive force. The third chapter enables the student to understand and appreciate the torsion of bars around their axes and the determination of the Coulomb modulus. The fourth chapter deals with simple bending by subjecting a bar to an increasing force at its center. The fifth chapter examines the ability of materials to resist impact by measuring the energy absorbed by fracture using an instrument known as the “Charpy sheep”. The sixth and final chapter of this handout studies the behavior of a material when penetrated by a harder body. The hardness test measures the average contact pressure of materials when an indenter is driven into a flat surface. At the end of the manuscript, a bibliography is presented, including the references of the Documents used in writing this practical workbook.
