Strength of Concrete is a very important aspect during construction. Strength of concrete is obtained by crushing the specimen in from of cubes or cylinders. Engineers carefully design concrete for a particular compressive strength and specimen is tested by applying load in a compression Testing Machine. Where carrying frequently the specimens for testing in a standard laboratory is inconvenient and uneconomical. With special attachments, the machines can also be used for bricks. Hallow or solid concrete blocks, using appropriate capacity machine. In general a Compression Testing Machine

These are available in different sizes and are made according to Indian and British Standards. For the metric size cube moulds, the faces are machined flat to + /-0.02mm accuracy and finished to within 0.2mm for the inch size moulds, the faces are machined flat to +/-0.01 inches and finished to within 0.01 in All moulds are supplied complete with base plate.
