Dimension stone used in the construction industry requires durability testing. ASTM C170 describes the test methods to determine the differences in compressive strength between various dimension stones including granite, limestone, marble and sandstone.

The requirements of ASTM C170 for determining the compressive strength of dimension stone include the following machine specification & specimen preparations:

Apparatus-Any machine meeting the practices of ASTM E4 fixture/specimen centering capability with loading rates not to exceed 100 PSI/second
Test Specimens-Cubes or cylinders with the diameter or lateral dimension of not less than 2 inches
Measuring Specimens-At lease five specimens to be tested for each condition of test (dry or wet)
Conditioning-The dimension stone specimens can be tested in both dry and wet conditions
Dry specimens-48 hours at 140 ± 4º Fahrenheit
Wet specimens immersed in water for 48 hours at 72 ± 4ºFahrenheit
