Three-point Bending Test

The "Three-Point Bending Test" is a mechanical testing method used to evaluate the flexural properties and fracture toughness of materials by subjecting a beam-like specimen to a concentrated load applied at its midspan while supported at two fixed points, thereby distinguishing it from other bending tests by its specific loading configuration and simplicity in setup.
