What Is the Briquette Mould (Single) Used For?
A briquette is a waisted cement mortar specimen that is pulled apart in a tensile tester, the narrow waist fixing where it breaks. The mould halves are joined with the thumb screws and set on the steel base plate, the mortar is pressed into the cavity and levelled, and once it has set the screws are loosened so that the split mould opens without damaging the briquette. The briquette is then cured and broken, and its strength is worked out over the minimum section of 25.4 mm × 25.4 mm.
What to Specify When Ordering
