Concrete compressive strength testing is a vital and widely-used test to measure the mechanical properties of concrete. It determines the concrete’s ability to withstand axial compressive loads, which are applied until the concrete fails. The test is typically conducted on concrete cubes or cylinders that are cast and cured according to relevant standards. The compressive strength is calculated by dividing the maximum load the concrete can withstand by the specimen's cross-sectional area.
Our compressive strength testing service adheres to industry regulations and relevant UK standards, such as BS EN 12390-3:2019 Testing hardened concrete - Part 3: Compressive strength of test specimens. We use cutting-edge equipment and techniques to ensure the accuracy and reliability of our test results. You’ll receive a detailed report of the test outcomes, along with recommendations for any necessary improvements or adjustments.
Our compressive strength testing service is suitable for a variety of applications, including:
✔ Quality control and assurance for new construction projects
✔ Investigation and diagnosis of existing concrete structures
✔ Evaluation and verification of concrete repairs or modifications
✔ Assessment and monitoring of concrete deterioration or damage
✔ Determination and comparison of design and actual concrete properties
Whether you need to test a single sample or multiple ones, we offer a fast and cost-effective service. We look forward to assisting you.
