This test method provides a means of verifying that masonry materials used in construction result in masonry that meets the specified compressive strength. This test method provides a means of evaluating compressive strength characteristics of in-place masonry construction through testing of prisms obtained from that construction when sampled in accordance with euro code. Decisions made in preparing such field-removed prisms for testing, determining the net area, and interpreting the results of compression tests require professional judgment.
