The maximumload sustained by the specimen is recorded and the compressive strength of the concrete is calculated.4 ApparatusCompression tes
25、ting machine, conforming to EN 12390-4.5 Test specimens5.1 RequirementThe test specimen shall be a cube, cylinder or core meeting the requirements of EN 12350-1,EN 12390-1, EN 12390-2, or EN 12504-1. If the dimension of the test specimen does not conform to the tolerances for designatedsize in EN 12
26、390-1, it can be tested in accordance with the procedure given inAnnex B.NOTE Damaged specimens or specimens which are badly honeycombed should not be tested.BS EN 12390-3:2009 EN 12390-3:2009 (E)6 5.2Adjustment oftest specimensWhere the dimensions or shapes of test specimens do not conform to the r
27、equirements given inEN 12390-1 because they exceed the re spective tolerances, they shall be rejected, adjusted ortested inaccordance with AnnexB.One of the methods given in Annex A shall be used toadjust specimens. 6 Procedure6.1Specimen preparationand positioning Wipe all testing machine bearing s
28、urfaces clean and remove anyloose grit or other extraneous material fromthe surfaces of the specimen thatwill be in contact with the platens.Do not use packing, other than auxiliaryplatens or spacing blocks (see EN 12390-4) between the specimen and the platens of the testing machine.Wipe the excessm
29、oisture from the surface of the specimen before placing in the testing machine.Position the cube specimens so that the load is applied perpendicularlyto the direction of casting.Centre the specimen with respect to the lower platen to an accuracy of 1 % of the designated size of cubic, ordesignated d
30、iameter of cylindrical specimens. If auxiliaryplatens are used, align them with the top and bottom face of the specimen.With two-column testing machines, cubic specimens should be placed with the trowelled surface facing a column.6.2 Loading Select a constant rate of loading within the range 0,6 0,2
31、 MPa/s (N/mms). After the application of the initial load, which does not exceed approximately 30% of the failure load, applythe load to the specimen without shock and increase continuously at the selected constant rate 10 %, until no greater load can be sustained.When using manually controlled test
32、ing machines, correct any tendency for the selected rate of loading todecrease, as specimen failure is approached byappropriate adjustment of the controls.Record the maximum load indicated in kN. NOTE Further guidance on loading rates for high and low strength concrete e.g. above 80 MPa and below 20
33、 MPa cube strengths, may be given in national Annex NA6.3Assessment oftype of failureExamples of the failure of specimen showing that the tests have proceeded satisfactorily are given in Figure 1 for cubes and in Figure 3 for cylinders.Examples for unsatisfactory failure of specimens are shown in Fi
34、gure 2 for cubes and in Figure 4 for cylinders.If failureis unsatisfactory this shall be recorded with reference to the pattern letter according to Figure 2 or 4closest to that observed.NOTE Unsatisfactoryfailures can be caused by: BS EN 12390-3:2009 EN 12390-3:2009 (E)7 insufficient attention to te
35、sting procedures, especially positioning of the specimen;a fault with the testing machine. For cylindrical specimens, failure of the capping before the concrete is an unsatisfactory failure.7 Expression of resultsThe compressive strength is given bythe equation: ccFfA=wheref c is the compressive str
36、ength, in MPa (N/mm); F is the maximum load at failure, in N;A c is the cross-sectional area of the specimen onwhich the compressive force acts, calculated fromthe designated size of the specimen (see EN 12390-1) or from measurements on the specimen if tested according to Annex B, in mm2 . The compr
37、essive strength shall be expressed to the nearest 0,1 MPa (N/mm).8 Test reportThe report shall include:a) identification of the test specimen;b) designated dimensions of the specimen or if tested inaccordance with Annex B,actual dimensions;c) details of adjustment bygrinding/capping (if appropriate)
