Concrete compressive strength testing equipment.

Testing high strength concrete hsc for compressive strength puts into doubt a certain number of concrete testing practices. All supported by u s. Typically concrete cubes are cured and tested in a manual or automatic concrete compression machine at 7 days and 28 days to assess compressive strength. These machines can test the compressive strength of beams blocks cubes cylinders and other various concrete structures.

Maturity meters concrete maturity testing assesses compressive strength supporting astm c107. The range we offer includes manually hand operated semi automatic compression testing equipment electrically cum manually operated equipment and more. Methods for testing compressive strength of concrete 1. Ele s comprehensive range of concrete compression machines is able to test concrete mortar and cement samples such as cubes cylinders flagstones and beams.

Cylinder molds are used to take and store concrete samples and assess the compressive strength of the hardened concrete over time. Concrete compression testing machines are available with total capacities from 250 to 500mlbf 1 112 to 2 224kn equipped with our pro or pro plus controllers. These strength testing equipment are extremely handy and are easy to use for testing cement concrete and mortar cubes. Construction materials testing equipment what can we break for you today.

Equipment includes concrete compression machines and accessories cylinder capping pads end preparation apparatus and capping compound masonry block caps and a portable concrete beam tester. First most testing laboratories are equipped with loading capacity machines inadequate for testing 150 x 300 mm 6 x 12 in specimens thus limiting hsc specimens to 100 x 200 mm 4 x 8 in in size. Concrete testing equipment measures the strength and consistency of concrete material and evaluates its quality for use in existing structures or new construction. Rebound hammer or schmidt hammer astm c805 method.
