LENGKUNG
(BENDING TEST)
UNTUK BAHAN BRITTLE
Bend test - Application of a force to the
center of a bar that is supported on each
end to determine the resistance of the
material to a static or slowly applied load.
Flexural strength or modulus of rupture -
The stress required to fracture a specimen
in a bend test.
Flexural modulus - The modulus of
elasticity calculated from the results of a
bend test, giving the slope of the stress-
deflection curve.

For three-point bending, an acceptable test specimen is one at least
3.2 mm (0.125 in.) thick, 12.7 mm (0.5 in.) wide, and long enough to
overhang the supports (but with overhang less than 6.4 mm (0.25 in.)
on each end).
The load should be applied at a specified crosshead rate, and the
test should be terminated when the specimen bends or is deflected by
0.05 mm/min (0.002 in./min).
S = 3FL/2wh2
in which F is the force at a given point on the deflection curve, L is
the support span, w is the width of the bar, and h is the depth of
the beam.
