Scope

This document specifies the procedure for the determination of transverse strength of natural stones used for constructional purposes well as the sampling, and the preparation of specimens

Purpose

Building stones are vastly used in construction due to their abundant availability in various parts of the globe as well as their various properties which make them a means of sustainable construction. In order to choose them and utilize them for their satisfactory performance, it is necessary to know the various strength properties determined according to standard procedure
