A lightweight/low-strength (~80 pounds per cubic foot) concrete test cylinder under compression testing. An linearly increasing load is being applied by the top and bottom plates of the machine, at the time of the photo the applied load was around 25,000 lbs. The devices attached to the cylinder measure the contraction of length of the sample in the direction of load. The rust colored material is a sulfur cap used to ensure flat ends.
