You need those qualities for quality, acceptance and research and development to ensure you meet specs.

Process

Cylinder test is about determining the compressive strength of concrete. Here's how it works:

  1. Sampling: You take a sample of fresh concrete from the mixer truck or job site. This sample has to be taken in accordance with ASTM C172. That ensures it really does represent the mix being used.

  2. Molding: You mold that concrete sample into a cylinder using a mold that meets ASTM C31. Those molds are made of smooth plastic or metal to give you a consistent shape and precise dimensional tolerance. Our durable bio cylinder is strong enough to withstand the elements and job-site storage issues. And it complies with ASTM specifications to give you dependable performance for quality in concrete testing.

  3. Curing: You cure that molded concrete cylinder in a controlled environment, either on the job site or in the lab. Curing involves keeping the temperature and humidity level just right to let it develop its strength. Proper curing prevents storage problems on site and ensures the concrete reaches its max load capacity.

  4. Testing: After curing, you test the concrete cylinder for compressive strength using a compression testing machine. The machine gradually loads the cylinder until it fails—and the maximum load is recorded. That's critical to determine the concrete's ability to withstand compressive forces and ensure the durability and safety of structures.

Compressive Strength

Compressive strength is the most important part of cylinder testing. It measures the ability to withstand compressive forces. Here are some key facts:

  1. Why it matters: Compressive strength testing is required to determine the load capacity of a concrete structure. That means the structure can withstand the weight and stresses it will be subjected to. That's critical for both safety and longevity.

  2. How we do it: The compressive strength is performed using a compression testing machine with our durable bio cylinder. That cylinder is known for its strength and weather resistance, which eliminates storage issues on site. It complies with ASTM specifications to give you consistent and dependable performance for quality in concrete testing. The machine applies a gradual load to the concrete cylinder until it fails—and the max load is recorded. That gives you a precise measurement of the concrete's compressive strength.

  3. Standards: The compressive strength test is performed to ASTM C39. That standard test method for compressive strength of cylindrical concrete specimens ensures the test results are accurate and reliable.

Acceptance testing and quality control are part of the concrete cylinder testing process. They ensure the concrete mix meets the required strength and durability standards. Here are some key facts:

  1. Purpose: Acceptance testing is to ensure the concrete mix meets the required strength and durability standards. Quality control is to ensure the concrete is produced and tested to the relevant standards to prevent issues in the final concrete structures.

  2. Standards: Acceptance testing and quality control is to ASTM C31. That standard practice for making and curing concrete test specimens in the field ensures the concrete cylinders are tested under the same conditions to get reliable results.

  3. Procedure: The acceptance testing procedure involves testing a series of concrete cylinders to ensure they meet the required strength and durability standards. The test results are then used to determine if the concrete mix is acceptable for the project.

By following the concrete cylinder testing process, engineers and contractors can be confident that the concrete used in their projects meets the required strength and durability standards. That gives peace of mind the concrete will perform as expected under load.
