BS 6319-2 : How To Check The Compressive Strength Of Resin Flooring

This Part of BS 6319-2 describes the procedure for the
measurement of the compressive strength of
specimens of resin based mortars and concretes in
the form of cubes.

Table of Contents

1. Compressive strength :- The maximum stress (in N/mm2 ) carried by the test
piece during a compressive test at the time of failure.

2. Principle : The principle of the test is the subjection of test
pieces of a defined geometry to a compressive force
until failure of the specimen occurs.

3.Apparatus

Compression testing machine

Moulds. Moulds shall comply with the
requirements of BS 6319-1 and shall be of a size to
produce cuboid samples in accordance with clause 5. 43. Test specimens

Preparation of specimens :- The preparation of
specimens, including the conditioning,
proportioning, and mixing of the materials and the
conditioning and filling of the mould shall be in
accordance with BS 6319-1.

Dimensions of specimens. Specimens shall be
cubes of sides 40 mm unless the material under test
contains an aggregate that, when sampled in
accordance with BS 812-1, will not pass through
a 4.75 mm BS 410 test sieve.

4. Sample. Test a minimum of three specimens at
a time for each prescribed set of test conditions Testing

Temperature :- Carry out the test at 20 ± 1 °C
unless, for a specific purpose, an alternative
temperature is deemed more appropriate. Maintain
the test specimens at the test temperature
conditions for not less than 16 h before testing
commences.

Placing the specimen in the testing machine :- Wipe clean the bearing surfaces of the testing
machine and of any auxiliary platens. Remove any
loose grit or other material from the surfaces of the
cube that are to be in contact with the compression
platens.
Loading. Apply the load without shock and
increase it continuously so that stress is applied at
the rate of approximately 45 N/mm2
per minute.

5. Calculation :- Calculate the compressive strength of each cube by
dividing the maximum load by the nominal
cross-sectional area. Also calculate the mean
compressive strength for a minimum of three
specimens originating from the same mix. Express
the values of compressive strength to the
nearest 1.0 N/mm2
