Compression Test of Concrete ( From UTAR's Laboratory Practical)

The 1st picture is the process of compressing the concrete. This is use to take note that which concrete will have a better strength and which one concrete will be more suitable to build structure or buildings. The machine will compress the concrete until it totally break then record it strength and stiffness of the concrete.

The second picture was one of the result that taken by the machine. From the picture, we can found the concrete can handle how much pressure and how many percentage it will fail. Furthermore, it also recorded the size of concrete like it depth, width, and height. It also show that the area and stress of the concrete.

The process of compression the concrete is very important to every construction cause they must test the concrete and use the suitable concrete or solution to the construction. Therefore, we also made this experiment and experience the process, it will so much helpful for some people who is constructing.
