Standard EN SampleTesting of Concrete: Making and Curing Test Specimens
Also Known As:
The BS ISO 1920-3:2019 standard is focused on the testing of concrete and specifically addresses the process of making and curing test specimens. The standard provides guidelines for the shape and dimensions of the concrete test specimens that are used for strength tests.
The standard emphasizes the importance of following specific methods for making and curing these test specimens. This includes information on the preparation of the test specimens, such as the use of molds and the process for filling them with concrete. It also provides guidance on the curing methods to be employed to ensure the test specimens obtain the desired strength characteristics.
By adhering to the guidelines outlined in this standard, it ensures consistency and accuracy in the testing of concrete. This allows for reliable measurements of concrete strength properties, which are crucial for the assessment of its quality and performance. The standard serves as a valuable resource for professionals involved in concrete testing and provides a standardized approach to ensure accurate and comparable results across different testing scenarios.
