2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define compressive strength in concrete.
Think about what happens when you press on a concrete block.
What type of loading is used in the flexural strength test?
Think about how force can be distributed over a beam.
What is the main purpose of a compressive strength test?
Consider what property the test is measuring.
True or False: The flexural strength test is only applicable for beams.
Think about where bending might occur in structural elements.
If a cylinder with a diameter of 150 mm and a length of 300 mm breaks under a load of 75 kN, calculate the split tensile strength.
Ensure your units are consistent when plugging values into the formula.
During a bond strength test, a steel bar with a diameter of 12 mm is subjected to a maximum load of 50 kN. Calculate the average bond stress.
Carefully calculate the area using the diameter of the bar.
