Embrittlement test is performed on reinforcing material (reo bar) to ensure that the structures or part of structures do not crack or instantaneously fracture during bending, fabrication, lifting and in-situ. The most common test method is bend and reverse bend test followed by visual inspection and occasionally supplemented by other confirmatory test methods.
