The compression test method is a general method used to determine the compression mechanical properties of metallurgical product materials. The compression test method standard provides the required performance measurement method for the relevant metallurgical product standards and is used by the product standards.

This compression test method provides six methods for measuring compression mechanical properties, including: specified non-proportional compressive strength Rpc, specified total compressive strength Rtc, upper compression yield strength ReHc, lower compression yield strength ReLc, compressive strength Rmc, and compressive elastic modulus Ec etc.
