In general, compressive strengths of specimens end with neoprene pads were slightly lower than those of tested capped with sulfur-mortar.

At present, tested study by a consulting firm showed that uncapped specimens A using steel end caps with rubber inserts yielded compressive tested values that, for all practical purposes, were about strength as those obtained on specimens capped with sulfur-mortar.(3) same used steel end caps with a diameter of 6-1/2 in.

Consequently, materials study reported here was conducted to compare results of on companion field specimens by alternative methods.
