Improvement of the current universal testing machine with a new                 microprocessor console provides digital load readout with peak hold             indicator, computer input of a specified stress, strain, deflection or          load rate, and computer output of loadings, stresses and deflections            during the test.  This improved basic laboratory equipment will                 enhance undergraduate education in civil engineering by exposing                students to a state-of-the-art indicating and control system.  This             system will approximate industrial practice.                                    The enhanced material will particularly benefit students in the                 understanding of:  fundamental of engineering materials and                     engineering soil tests where students perform numerous tests on steel           concrete and rock like materials using the universal testing machine.
