Notes:
The classical solid-medium apparatus (Griggs apparatus) is generally viewed as a machine of poor accuracy with a large amount of uncertainty. However, a new generation of equipment with new assemblies and experimental procedures has greatly enhanced the capability of the apparatus. Experiments performed on the apparatus set up in our Laboratory on T-oriented Yule Marble samples show that the yield strength of material can be measured with reasonable precision (within 10 MPa) and a yield strength as low as 50 MPa can be detected. The apparatus is particularly adapted to work on small specimens e.g. single crystals a few millimetres in size.
