3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is compressive strength?
Think about how much load concrete can bear.
What is the typical compressive strength range of Ordinary Portland Cement concrete?
Consider the values mentioned in class.
What is the primary measure of a material's ability to withstand compressive loads?
Think about which term relates to 'compression'.
True or False: High-strength concrete can achieve compressive strengths above 100 MPa.
Recall the numbers mentioned in class.
A new construction project needs a foundation with a compressive strength of at least 30 MPa. If the current mix design yields a strength of 25 MPa, what could you suggest to enhance the strength, considering admixtures?
Consider industry practices for mix adjustments.
Describe an experiment to test the compressive strength of your concrete sample and how you would analyze the results.
Recall the testing standards we discussed in the previous class.
