Nano indentation test is ...still.. running

With a bit of smallish problems last Tuesday we started our first batch of Nano Indentation tests.
First batch covers samples from Nautesund Bridge Original mix 1 (Prisms 1-2-3) and Nautesund aggregate Standard AAR-4 testing (Prism 5). All samples were subjected to 60°C and %100 humidity for 140 days. A total of 850 indent points selected for 4 samples (roughly 15mm X 15 mm).

On the 6th day of experiments, Indentation still continues... Needle is on the final indent group though.
Hopefully, by the end of today, we will get our samples our for further investigation
