Standard: ASTM C684, BS1881:112

Description

ASTM C684 Outlines procedures for making and testing cylindrical concrete specimens under controlled conditions, including accelerated curing methods. The standard provides guidelines for preparing and curing concrete specimens for compression testing, with specific requirements for curing temperatures and durations to accelerate the curing process. BS 1881:112 Specifies procedures for determining the compressive strength of concrete specimens, particularly cylindrical specimens, using compression testing methods. BS 1881:112 details the preparation, curing, and testing procedures for concrete specimens to assess their compressive strength, which is a crucial parameter for evaluating the quality and performance of concrete in construction projects.
