The use of the non-destructive testing methods for determining the compressive strength of high performance concrete ensures high quality. Compressive strength test results are mainly used to ...

So that it may be certain that a concrete specimen’s mechanical properties reach the strength and deflection imperatives for its intended use, concrete specimens with specific dimensions are prepared, ...

When compressive strength tests of laboratory-cured cylinders fail to meet the specified acceptance criteria, core tests are commonly used to verify the strength and to obtain acceptance of the ...

A shortage of skilled labor continues to be the dominate issue in the construction industry, and rightfully so. However, delays in construction schedules have always been a thorn in the side of ...

Argo Graphene Solutions reported that a 56-day compressive strength test on its graphene-infused concrete mix poured in Bristol, Tennessee, showed a 24.35% increase over the 4,000 psi design strength, ...

President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Unlike metals and plastics, for which tensile and compressive properties are the same or very similar, unidirectional composites exhibit significantly different ...
