Description

Designed for technicians, engineers, and materials science learners, this course delivers an in-depth exploration of mechanical testing processes for steel products. Through a structured sequence of modules, learners examine fundamental principles, such as stress-strain behavior, tensile and hardness testing, and the preparation of test samples. The course progresses into specialized topics including steel strip formability and test piece orientation. Learners will conduct simulations, interpret mechanical properties, and align testing procedures with industrial standards. Through practical applications and graphical analysis, participants gain the ability to evaluate material performance under various forces and processing scenarios. Ideal for vocational training, quality assurance roles, or engineering certification tracks.
