Mechanical properties may drastically change with temperature, which is crucial to characterize materials in environments as similar as possible to their desired application. This paper discusses a new furnace designed for thermomechanical experiments assisted by Digital Image Correlation (DIC) up to 900°C, with six transparent windows that allow for the visualization and lighting of the specimen. Its versatility is demonstrated in three different experimental configurations, namely, dilatometry, three-point bend experiment, and wedge splitting test. Applied forces and full-field data are used for robust calibration of parameters for numerical simulations.
