what is the procedure to make compressive strength test for
concrete cube in lab

Answer Posted / joel soans

The procedure is to test it in compression testing machine or UTM, for 7 days ,14 days and 28days and if required for 45 days, when the previous results are not satisfactory.
Compression testing measures the amount of compression which can be resisted by the cube and can be read in dial gauge or digital meter of the machine...The crushing of concrete cube at the certain pressure or compression resembles its crushing strength or compressive strength in N/mmsq
