- Easy to install
- Repeated use
- Easy drawing of stress- strain curve


The CM compressometer is designed to conduct a strength test. It measures the axial strain on a cylindrical concrete specimen placed in and secured by screws to the inner chamber of this compressometer. It uses a high-sensitivity strain gauge to measure the amount of strain. By multiplying a measurement by a certain factor, the amount of strain can be calculated as a numerical value. Unlike the case of ordinary strain gauges, this compressometer is simple and easy to operate and can be used repeatedly. However, it cannot be used to conduct breaking tests.
