CUBOTEXT is a preformed expanded polystyrene (EPS) suitable for making cubic concrete specimens with a side length of 15 cm for laboratory tests to prove their compressive strength. No special measures are required to make the test specimens. After they are filled, the concrete is settled by means of immersion vibrators, and any volume decreases due to the vibration operation are then topped up.
CUBOTEXT consists of two parts, the bottom and the lid, which are designed to be sealed together, when required, in order to protect the sample from tampering.
The shockproof nature of the EPS material means that the CUBOTEXT cuboid, in addition to its function as a formwork, also fulfils the function of real packaging of the concrete specimen, which remains protected during shipment to the testing laboratories.
