What is UTM?
A universal testing machine (UTM), also known as a universal tester, materials testing machine or materials test frame, is used to test the tensile strength and compressive strength of materials. An earlier name for a tensile testing machine is a tensometer. The "universal" part of the name reflects that it can perform many standard tensile and compression tests on materials, components, and structures (in other words, that it is versatile).
How to Calculate Standard gauge length for UTM test specimen?
Standard gauge length for UTM test specimen calculator uses Gauge Length for Test Specimen = 5.65*(Cross Sectional Area of Column^0.5) to calculate the Gauge Length for Test Specimen, The Standard gauge length for UTM test specimen formula is defined as the length of a test specimen used in Universal Testing Machines to determine the mechanical properties of materials, specifically under direct and bending stress conditions, providing a standardized method for evaluating material behavior. Gauge Length for Test Specimen is denoted by L symbol.
