Advanced composites are a relatively new engineering material. As a result, reliable databases of material properties are fairly rare.ITS has the techniques designed to assess the mechanical integrity of such materials.  We perform several ASTM standardized testing along with custom testing requests.

• Standard Tensile
• Tensile Properties of Polymers Matrix Composite Materials [D-3039]
  
• Fracture Toughness Tensile Clevises [ASTM E-399]
• Modified Compressive Testing [ASTM D-695]
  
• Three and Four Point Flexure Test [ASTM D-790, D-6272, & D-7264]
• Interlaminar Shear SBS [ASTM D-2344]
• Roller Drum Peal Test [ASTM D-3167]
• Filled Hole Tension, FHT [ASTM D-5766 / D-6742]
• Bearing Response of Polymers Matrix Composite Laminates [ASTM D-5961]
• Open Hole Compression, OHC [ASTM D-6484]
• Combined Loading Compression Test [ASTM D-6641]
• Durability and Damage Tolerances Tests [ASTM D-7136]
• Compression Strength After Impact, CSAI-DT Energies [ASTM D-7137 & NASA-1092]
