The measure of compressive strength is expressed in force per unit area, typically in Mega Pascals (MPa). Structures made of concrete need to have ample compressive strength to sustain the weight placed on them. Hence, the cube and cylinder strength of concrete are frequently tested to ascertain this critical attribute. The Cube …

This procedure is to be used for determining the compressive strength of concrete cylinders and cores . After preparing the ends, a compressive axial load will be applied to the samples at a continuous rate until failure occurs. The compressive strength will be determined by dividing the maximum load by the cross-sectional area of the sample.
