Classes

Civil engineering undergraduates learn about reinforced concrete through mixing, bending rebar, creating molds, pouring and finally testing concrete beams of two different sizes using CIEST's bending load frame equipped with a 110-kip actuator.

CIEST served as a resource to students in AREN 4830 (Sustainable Materials and Structures) as they designed and tested concrete mixes and considered the variable environmental impacts of their chosen materials.

Structural Dynamics students work with CIEST to apply learning in labs.

Experimental Methods in Structural Engineering apply learning with CIEST

CIEST assists Mechanics of Materials I and II in their practical labs.
