ASTM C1550 The Round Determinate Panel (RDP) test is performed to determine the flexural toughness of fibre-reinforced concrete (FRC) and shotcrete using a round panel supported on three symmetrically arranged pivots and subjected to a central point load.

Two column steel frame with self-centering base specimen holder and upper load beam suspended with springs for easy adjustment of the specimen. The devices can be easily placed on lower platen of the compression tester using suitable distance pieces to adjust the vertical daylight. The device have to be completed with the packing strips to be inserted between the specimen and the load beams.
