This is a workaround to simulate the described behavior. You can use a WebViewClient, and override the onPageStarted method:

public class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
    boolean timeout;

    public MyWebViewClient() {
        timeout = true;
    }

    @Override
    public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url, Bitmap favicon) {
        new Thread(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                timeout = true;

                try {
                    Thread.sleep(1000);
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
                if(timeout) {
                    // do what you want
                }
            }
        }).start();
    }

    @Override
    public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
        timeout = false;
    }
}

If timeout, you can load, for example, an error page...

To add the WebViewClient to you WebView, just do this:

webView.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
