GLC FRESH SYSTEM FFP-T01 TEST REPORT
Objective
The following test was performed on February 22nd 2017 on an experimental composite floor panel, simply supported at both ends and Subjected to a concentrated load condition until total failure occurred. Measurements for flexure were taken throughout the test at four points. All data obtained herein will be submitted to the structural engineer for analysis, computer modeling and conclusions that will serve as guidance for further tests to more detail and under more controlled conditions.

The nominal weight unit used was a standard bag of Portland cement of 42.5 Kg.
Measurements for deflection were taking at L/2 and L/4 on each side of the panel for every 85 Kg. (two bags of Portland cement).
