2020-6-4As per BIS IS 516 the compressive strength of a concrete mix is determined by curing concrete cubes 150mm for 28 days temperature maintained at 27- 2 0 C.This test determines the grade of concrete.. But under special requirements time constraints to determine grade of concrete it may not be feasible to wait as long as 28 days BIS has recommended accelerated curing test on

Mortar is a mixture of cement and sand in a specified ratio on which the strength of the mortar depends. If the mortar is weak then also its compressive strength is very low but if the mortar is a strong one then its compressive strength is also very high.. The mixture of sand and cement in water is generally weak in tension and is strong in compression that is why when the concrete is

2018-6-22False strength of concrete proves fatal as it may fail due to various factors in the long terms. Therefore to ensure the functional performance and safety of structure it is necessary to determine the true strength of concrete. In this project the effect of high rate of loading on compressive strength of concrete has been studied. As it has

2009-10-26estimate the compressive strength in the range of concrete grade from 16 to 50MPa. Compressive strength is considered as one of the key properties in characteriation of concretes in engineering practice. As the standard laboratory test to determine it require standard specimens so indirect test are often used to predict the strength. The maximum
