Assessment of Steel End Caps with Rubber Inserts as Capping Media for Concrete Cylinders

W. J. Head / W. H. Iskander / J. D. Folden

This study was performed to find if steel end caps with removable neoprene inserts could be used as acceptable capping media for one-day old conventional concrete cylinders as well as for small concrete cylinders one day and twenty-eight days old when tested in unconfined compression. An extensive, laboratory testing program was undertaken. Results of analyses of variance were employed in concluding that steel end caps with rubber inserts were acceptable capping media.
