CREEP/STRESS RUPTURE TESTING


TRI performs creep/stress rupture testing for characterization of reinforcement geosynthetics:

strain limit creep testing
stress rupture limit testing
development of reduction factors for creep/stress rupture (RFCR)
accelerated creep and stress rupture testing using conventional time temperature superposition (TTS)
accelerated creep and stress rupture testing using TRI developed Stepped Isothermal Method (SIM) testing
