The Lightweight Aggregates Crushing Resistance test evaluates the ability of lightweight aggregates to withstand crushing under a controlled load. The procedure requires applying load until a defined displacement threshold is reached, ensuring precise measurement of aggregate performance.
A Matest compression machine is used to carry out this test, providing accurate control of load and displacement and guaranteeing repeatable, reliable results. This test is essential for quality control, material assessment, and compliance with the EN 1305 standard, particularly for applications where the performance of lightweight concrete is critical.
