The Charpy Impact Test is a vital mechanical test used to measure how much energy a material absorbs before fracturing under sudden impact. It helps engineers understand material toughness, brittle vs ductile behavior, and performance at low temperatures. From bridges and offshore platforms to aircraft and pressure vessels, Charpy testing plays a key role in safety, quality control, and material selection. This video explains the test setup, procedure, fracture behavior, and real-world applicati
