This facility is a 3600-cubic-foot environmental testing chamber that simulates extreme conditions, including temperature, humidity, rain, and cyclic loads. It features a high-force MTS actuator, advanced climate controls, and Russells Technical Products’ VS-1 software for precise testing. Designed for expansion, it supports solar simulation, rapid freezing, and salt fog testing for large specimens like tactical Humvees.
The Fabrication Lab is a dedicated space that fosters innovation and creativity. Equipped with a variety of tools and technology, this space empowers students to bring their ideas to life.
The fire-testing furnace is equipped to test structural components such as armor, columns, beams, floor systems etc. under extreme fire conditions to which they would likely be subjected in real life. Using natural gas flame jets from nine burners, the maximum temperature that the furnace can reach is 2,300 degrees F (1,260 degrees C). To gain a sense of civilian housing fire loading, the temperatures in a typical residential/household fire may range from 900 degrees F (482 degrees C) to 1,200 degrees F (649 degrees C). The interior dimensions of the furnace are 22′-3½” × 10′-6″ × 8′-6″ (6.8 m × 3.2 m × 2.6 m).
