Autoclaved Aerated Concrete Block

Compressive strength is the capacity of material or structure to resist or withstand under compressive load. The Compressive strength is determined by the ability of the material to resist failure in the form cracks and fissure. The maximum load at which the specimen breaks is taken as a compressive load.

It is the ratio of dry weight in grams to the volume in cm3.

The most common dry densities for load-bearing products and reinforced AAC-elements are 400 kg/m3 and 500 kg/m3. These values refer to the oven-dried material.

This test calculates the height and the total area of the AAC block.
