The Material Testing Laboratory (MTL) at IOE, Paschimanchal Campus is a vital facility dedicated to supporting engineering education and research. Established to meet the requirements of the academic curriculum, the laboratory plays a crucial role in equipping students with practical knowledge of material properties and testing techniques. Unlike a central testing center, the MTL at Paschimanchal Campus primarily serves as an educational and research-based facility rather than a commercial testing hub. Over the years, the laboratory has contributed significantly to academic learning and research initiatives, providing hands-on experience in testing various construction materials, including concrete, steel, aggregates, and soil, essential for civil engineering applications.
