Concrete Beam Moulds BS 1881-108 | Heavy-Duty Cast Iron & Mild Steel Flexural Testing Moulds
Beam Mould
Product Code: MSI 2026 (Series MSI 2026A to MSI 2026E)
The Beam Mould series features high-precision rectangular casting channels used for creating standardized concrete specimens for flexural (modulus of rupture) testing in compliance with BS 1881-108. Fabricated from structural Cast Iron or Mild Steel, these heavy-duty moulds are built to withstand high manual pounding or mechanical table vibration without shifting or bowing.
Each mould features a robust four-plate modular layout that assembles tightly together on a unified base plate. All internal contact faces are precision-ground and machined flat to within ±0.2 mm and finished comprehensively in total size to within 0.2 mm tolerances to ensure smooth, dimensionally stable concrete beam samples.
🎯 Applications
Flexural Strength & Modulus of Rupture Specimen Casting
Highway, Airfield Runway, and Pavement Concrete Quality Control
Civil Engineering & Third-Party Structural Calibration Laboratories
Ready Mix Concrete (RMC) Quality Auditing & Beam Production
Precast Structural Beam & Lintel Manufacturing Checks
Academic Research & Engineering University Testing Facilities
⭐ Features
Standard Compliance: Fully conforms to BS 1881-108 dimensional and structural requirements.
4-Plate Modular Body: Disassembles quickly into 4 independent side plates for simple, scratch-free sample extraction.
Precision Machining: Internal faces are machined to flat tolerances of ±0.2 mm to distribute load stress evenly during flexure tests.
Integrated Base Design: Supplied complete with a matching heavy-gauge steel base plate to lock in structural alignment.
Ultra-Rigid Frame: Structural metal build blocks out warping, bowing, or bulging under repetitive compaction loads.

🔬 Working Principle
The four independent metal side panels are clean-scraped and coated with a thin layer of form-release oil. They are interlocked into position and bolted onto the machined base plate. Fresh batch concrete is poured into the rectangular prism in multiple stages and compacted uniformly via a tamping bar or vibrating table. The ground flat joints prevent bleeding of the cement paste mixture. After an overnight ambient cure, the clamping wing nuts are backed out, and the side plates swing open to release the perfect beam specimen without stress cracks.
💡 Advantages
Perfect perpendicular lines eliminate cross-sectional errors during third-point center-point laboratory crushing.
Modular plate breakdown significantly cuts down cleaning and reassembly maintenance downtime.
Heavy gauge wall steel eliminates dimensional twisting over thousands of continuous testing cycles.
Watertight mechanical design locks in the exact moisture profile needed for true standard concrete curing.
