ASTM C39 Compressive Strength of Cylindrical Concrete Specimens
ASTM C39 consists of applying a compressive axial load to molded cylinders or cores at a rate which is within a prescribed range until failure occurs. The compressive strength of the specimen is calculated by dividing the maximum load attained during the test by the cross-sectional area of the specimen. The results of ASTM C39 test methods for ...
