These methods cover determination of the compressive properties of sandwich cores. These properties are usually determined for design purposes, in a direction normal to the plane of facings as the core would be placed in a structural sandwich construction. The test procedures pertain to compression in this direction in particular, but also can be applied with possible minor variations to determining compressive properties in other directions. Two test methods are described as follows: method A provides complete deformation data, and; method B, an alternative method, measures crushing strength only.
