ISO 1920-10:2010 PDF Download

ISO 1920-10:2010 is a standard that provides a test method for determining the static modulus of elasticity in compression of hardened concrete. This standard applies to both cast and extracted test specimens. The modulus of elasticity is a measure of a material's ability to deform under compressive stress without permanent damage. By determining the modulus of elasticity in compression, the standard enables the evaluation of the stiffness and strength of concrete.

The standard outlines the procedure for conducting the test, which involves subjecting the concrete specimen to a series of increasing compression loads and measuring the corresponding deformation. The test results can then be used to assess the structural performance and potential load-bearing capacity of concrete elements. The standard ensures that the testing procedure is conducted consistently and accurately, allowing for reliable and comparable results across different laboratories and test setups.
