COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE CUBE SPECIMEN (BS-1881)
COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE CUBE SPECIMEN (BS-1881)
Quality control of concrete during the construction of buildings, roads, runways, bridges, and large civil engineering projects is most critical to ensure the lifelong stability of concrete structures. Making and curing concrete cube specimens for testing after intervals of 07 and 28 days is a common practice for quality assurance in all civil engineering projects.
Concrete cube samples are filled in 6 inches by 6-inch cubes during the concrete pouring process and cured for its compressive strength test in the lab to match the test results with designed concrete strength for quality monitoring. Building standards provide lab facilities with motorized and digital concrete testing machines for reliable and accurate test results. Building standards offer a complete range of destructive and non-destructive testing to evaluate in-situ strength, condition, and expected remaining life span of any concrete structure.
