EN 12390-7 Tests of Hardened Concrete - Test for Density of Hardened Concrete

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 12390-7 testing. This standard specifies a method for determining the density of hardened concrete by measuring the mass and volume of a test sample.

EN 12390-7 Tests of Hardened Concrete - Test for Density of Hardened Concrete

The test sample is first dried in an oven and then weighed to obtain its dry mass. The volume of the sample is then determined using a water displacement method. The density of the sample is calculated by dividing the dry mass by the volume.

Density of hardened concrete refers to the mass of solid material per unit volume. Compressive strength is an important property of concrete as it affects many of its mechanical and durability properties, such as water absorption and resistance to freeze-thaw cycles.

The density of hardened concrete depends on various factors such as the type and amount of cement, aggregate, water and additives used, and curing conditions. This standard is widely used in the construction industry to verify concrete quality in building and infrastructure projects.
