ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring elastomeric properties of a specimen during a test procedure includes a first compression member. The apparatus also includes a second compression member. Moreover, the apparatus includes a load cell having a body and a movable probe. The body is fixed in relation to the first compression member. The apparatus also includes a load transferring member positioned in contact with the probe. The specimen is interposed between the load transferring member and the second compression member. The apparatus also includes a bolt which contacts both the first compression member and the second compression member so as to maintain a constant distance therebetween during the test procedure. A method for measuring elastomeric properties of a specimen during a test procedure is also disclosed.
