• First, select the applicable standard for your concrete tests from the following options:
• American Standards: mainly ASTM C39, AASHTO T22
• European Standards: mainly EN 12390-4
• General Utility: other national or regional standards or internal quality control procedures
Using the Load Frame Selection table on page 5, calculate what load capacity your compression machine should have based on the types and dimensions of specimens to be tested and the expected strength of the material.

This table helps you define the required frame load capacity according to the type /dimensions of the specimens to be tested and the Maximum Expected Strength of the material. Please note that failure results below 10% of the machine full scale may be scattered. In such case, we recommend to implement a special calibration of the load reading from 1% of the scale (50-C0050/CAL).
Load Frame Selection TableThe table is below is intended to be used as reference, considering a standard use of the machine. For intensive use and / or when specimens to be tested are characterized by brittle failure (explosive behaviour), we advise that you opt for a higher capacity frame to avoid excessive machine fatigue — please contact a member of our team for a tailored analysis of your needs. → Contact our Experts

Distance pieces allow you to adjust the distance between compression platens on your machine based on the height of the specimens to be tested.
When selecting distance pieces, all possible combinations of tests and specimen sizes should be considered.
The Buyer's Guide includes the recommended distance pieces for common specimen sizes /types. For different sizes see below how to calculate the required distance pieces.
How to Select your Distance PiecesThe total vertical space that needs to be filled by distance pieces can be calculated using: (v - h) - 10 mm
Where: v = Maximum vertical clearance of the machine (mm) h = Specimen height (mm) 10 mm = typical free vertical space to be left after specimen positioning
For example: v= 350 mm h = 150 mm Vertical space to be filled = (v-h) - 10 mm = (350 -150)-10 = 190 mm (approx.)
