This study was conducted for Northern Pipe Product Inc., Fargo, ND, and presents test results from a program to investigate the axial performance of nominal 6-in. (150-mm) diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe and joints with reinforced gaskets.The
Civil engineering undergraduates learn about reinforced concrete through mixing, bending rebar, creating molds, pouring and finally testing concrete beams of two different sizes using CIEST's bending load frame equipped with a 110-kip actuator.

The intent of this study is to impose external loading conditions to test specimens that are representative of the significant deformations possible during earthquake-induced ground motions such as landsliding, fault rupture, and liquefaction-induced lateral spreading, characterizing the pipeline system capacity.
