Questions
Which syllabus does the Materials Testing Lab course follow?
It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Materials Testing Lab. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.
Will this help in the practical exam and viva?
Yes. Each experiment is explained with its aim, procedure, calculations and result, followed by viva questions and a mock practical.
Are all IS tests shown?
The centre demonstrates key tests and explains the remaining ones with procedure, observation tables and viva questions as per the AKTU lab list.
