- A normal-weight concrete has an average compressive strength of 30 MPa. What is the estimated modulus of elasticity?What is the distinction between cement and concrete? Explain three techniques that are utilized to strengthen concrete by reinforcement.what is the compressive strength of concrete is a 6" cylindrical sample was tested in utm and failed at 640 kn load?
- A normal-weight concrete has an average compressive strength of 4500 psi. What is the estimated modulus of elasticity? What is the estimated tensile strength of this concrete?A concrete specimen with b = d is supported at both ends 600mm apart. It is tested for flexure strength with load at midspan of 100kN and failed with a flexural stress of 52.083 MPa. What is the dimension b and d of the specimen in mm?True or false: Generally speaking, concrete will be priced the same regardless of its designed strength, 4,500 psi concrete will cost the same as 3,000 psi concrete.
