Bingham Structures Laboratory

The major component of this laboratory is a 14-foot by 60-foot structural test slab, which is the top flange of a 12-foot deep reinforced concrete box girder. Load and tiedown points are provided by 3-inch diameter holes spaced at 2-foot centers. Loading is accomplished by hydraulic jacks. The laboratory also contains 200k, 50k, 25k universal testing machines, and two (2) 55k MTS hydraulic actuators with a controller and a separate hydraulic service manifold system.
