Four-point Bending Test

Four-Point Bending Test is a mechanical testing method used to evaluate the flexural properties of materials, in which a specimen is supported at two points and loaded at two other points symmetrically located between the supports, thereby producing a region of constant bending moment and zero shear force in the central span.
