Article BBS - Concrete Compressive Strength Tool is designed to assist in finding the value of a planned concrete, according to the SNI 03-1974-1990 ASRM C-39 standard with 15x15x15 cm cubes or 15 x30 cm cylinders.

Of the many tests applied to the concrete, the compressive strength test is the most important, as it gives an idea about the characteristics of the concrete. It is the main parameter that allow us to know and provide an overview of almost all of its mechanical properties of concrete. This is the main reason concrete is very strong in resisting compressive forces, but very weak in receiving tensile forces.

The results of this test provide data on the behavior of the material during and after experiencing certain heavy stresses and determine the maximum acceptable pressure limit, and how long the material can withstand heavy stress. Some examples of products that can be tested are bricks, hebel, concrete, cardboard, gasket etc.

Press tests are carried out in quality control processes and is applicable in various industries, such as in the automotive manufacturing industry, container manufacturing, pipe manufacturing, concrete, metal, plastics, rubber etc. Every product and industry varies with different materials, utilising different specifications of press equipment. It varies on the shape of the material, the strength of the material, and the size of the material. All of these things have an effect on the capacity of the test equipment required.


USE OF CONCRETE PRESS MACHINES

The results of the data collection from the compressive test provide information about the weight of the quality, integrity and safety of a material product. It assists manufacturing companies in ensuring the products produced are of the best quality that consumers can choose. In addition, this compressive strength testing machine also provides consistency in product quality so that it can continue to be above industry and market standards. Most importantly this compressive test tool can help companies reduce long-term costs and increase productivity and profitability.
