The compressive strength of the stone.<\/p>\n<p>Smith&#8217;s test is a non-destructive test used to determine the compressive strength of stone. It is a simple test that can be performed in the field or laboratory. The test involves applying a load to a cylindrical specimen of stone until it fails. The compressive strength is then calculated from the load and the cross-sectional area of the specimen.<\/p>\n<p>The compressive strength of stone is an important property for a number of reasons.
