What does the compressive strength test measure?
Think about the load-bearing capacity.
What shape are the specimens used for compressive strength tests?
Recall the dimensions we discussed.
What does the compressive strength test measure?
Focus on what happens when concrete fails.
True or False: The bond strength test is crucial for load transfer between concrete and steel.
Consider the function of reinforcing steel.
Considering that a concrete cylinder has a diameter of 150 mm and a length of 300 mm, calculate the tensile strength if the load at failure is 50 kN.
Make sure to convert units where necessary.
A beam with dimensions 150 mm x 150 mm x 700 mm failed under a load of 30 kN. Calculate the flexural strength using third-point loading.
Remember to use the right dimensions for width and height.
