About This Product
Concrete compression testers crush a concrete specimen, such as a cube or cylinder, between two plates, and the highest load reached is divided by the loaded area to give the compressive strength. A hand operated machine with a pressure gauge does not depend on mains power, so it can be used at a site laboratory. The maximum load indicator holds the peak reading so that students can note it after the specimen has failed, and then reset the pointer to zero.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How is the load applied on the Concrete Compression Tester?
The load is applied manually and observed on a pressure gauge.
Q2. What does the maximum load indicator do?
It stays at the peak reading even after the specimen under test crushes, and has to be set to zero manually.
Q3. Where is this tester useful?
It is useful in field laboratories and mobile testing laboratories or vans, particularly where constant electric power is not available.
