Investigation of the influence of different surface regularization methods for cylindrical concrete specimens in axial compression tests

ABSTRACT This study was conducted with the aim of evaluating the influence of different methods for end surface preparation of compressive strength test specimens. Four different methods were compared: a mechanical wear method through grinding using a diamond wheel established by NBR 5738; a mechani...
