Lays down a method for determining compressive strength in the machine and cross directions of paper and board using a short span compression tester. Intended for papers or boards used for the manufacture of containers and boxes but can be used for laboratory sheets prepared for the testing or pulp. Covers normative references, definitions, principle, apparatus, calibration, sampling, conditioning, preparation of test pieces, procedure, expression of results and test report.
