Basalt Fiber Reinforced Composite Materials:- The study focuses on two basalt composite laminate panels for lading, produced by means of vacuum bagging technique. IN Particular, unidirectional and random basal fabrics, with different areal weights, using epoxy resin as matrix, are used. According to the ISO 15686 methodology for the evaluation of durability, samples were subjected to cycles of artificial aging in climatic chambers and outdoor exposure, carrying out mechanical (i.e. quasi-static and dynamic) and calorimetric tests. The results show the effectiveness over time of produced basalt composite laminates and the initial increase of the mechanical performance after the first steps of accelerated aging

Fabrication of Mechanical Arrangement for Stiffness testing of compression Spring:- A Spring Stiffness testing machine was produced which differentiates a good spring from bad one using mechanical principal and locally sourced materials were used to produce at relative low cost and high efficiency. I also categories each spring by stiffness into one of several distinct categories based on its performance under test. This is to ensure that in the final assembly process, springs with similar performance characteristic are mated to ensure a better ride, more precise handling and improved overall vehicle or equipment performance. The construction of the machine involves the fabrication process which includes such operations as cutting, benching, welding, grinding, drilling, machining, casting and screw fastening.
