Testing Hardened Concrete: Compressive Strength of Test Specimens
Also Known As:
The BS EN 12390-3:2019 standard provides guidelines for determining the compressive strength of hardened concrete samples. The standard outlines a method that can be used to assess the resistance of concrete to compressive forces.
The standard is relevant in various industries where concrete strength is a critical factor, such as construction, civil engineering, and infrastructure projects. It ensures that accurate and consistent measurements are obtained when assessing the strength of concrete specimens.
The standard specifies the testing procedure to be followed, including sample preparation, curing methods, and testing equipment. It provides guidelines on the compression testing machine, the dimensions and shape of the specimens, and the loading rate to be applied during testing.
