The initial concrete temperature was 71oF A total of 32 4x8 cylinders were cast for strength tests Strength tests were planned for three, seven, 28 and 90 days with an average from two cylinder tests representing a strength test result Curing Conditions Cylinders were covered with plastic caps and cured in the following four methods...
Practical use of high-strength concrete-concrete with a com pressive strength in excess of 6,000 pounds per square inch (psi)-was rare until the 1960s The compressive strength of commercially available concrete has increased over time (1,2), however, and high-strength concrete is now reasonably avail able in many locations...

sile strength, and modulus of elasticity, were measured over time The compressive strength was measured using ASTM C39-09a Compressive Strength of Cylindrical Concrete Specimens14 for C1 and ASTM C109-02 Com-pressive Strength of Hydraulic Cement Mortars (Using 2-in or [50-mm] Cube Specimens)15 for the other materials The...
to predict the compressive strength of cylindrical concrete specimens with various diameters and height/diameter ratios Second, the model equation derived from the plain concrete was extended for predicting the compressive strength of spi-rally reinforced concrete cylinders The proposed equation...
Concrete Sampling Concrete cubes are made on site to check that the strength of the concrete is above the minimum strength which has been specified Standards BS EN 12350-1:2000 - Testing fresh concrete Sampling BS 1881-108:1983 - Testing concrete Method for making test cubes from fresh concrete...
pressive strength testing for enclosed slabs on grade C o m p ressive strength is overe m p h a - s i z e d The commonly specified 28-day compressive strength has been increased to as much as 5000 psi to permit the re-duction of calculated slab thickness De-spite a lower water-cement ratio, these higher 28-day-strength concretes usually...
pressive strength test results should never be compared to the requirements in ASTM C270 Table 2, which apply to laboratory-prepared mortar only ASTM C780 permits the use of cube or cylinder molds Cylinder molds of 2 or 3 in (51 or 76 mm) diameter have heights twice their ,...
pressive strength of the resulting concrete has been inves-tigated and found to be detrimental The object of this investigation was to find out the effect, if any, Then salt was added to a concrete made of _ , breaking stress adapted on the strength of the cylinder For results of these tests, see data sheets 1, 2, 3, h, 5 and 6, also Plates ....

strength may have been incorrectly calculated or recorded The contractor has reasons to suggest that it is the cylinders that are unsatisfactory, while the concrete in the structure is as specified On the other hand, the engineer has a professional respon-sibility to ensure the structural adequacy of the concrete,...
Presents a theoretical model for structural concrete in pure torsion which is comparable in rationality and generality to the well known theory for flexure As in flexure, the theory is formulated by considering the equilibrium condi-tions, the geometry of deformation, and the stress-strain characteristics of the steel and the concrete...

strength tests on concrete cylinders The 1/2 in (13 mm) thick neoprene pads had a 50 durometer hardness and were cut to fit in the end caps, which had an inside diameter of 6-1/4 in (159 mm) with a tolerance of +0 and -1/16 in (-2 mm) Compressive strength data were obtained from 438 pairs of cylinders prepared in the field from commercial...
Conventional cast-cylinder strength tests are also of little value, because the field consolidation of pervious concrete is difficult to reproduce in cylindrical test specimens, and strengths are heavily dependent on the void content...
Strength of plain concrete under combined tensile-compressive stresses has been studied by conducting splitting tests on cubes, cylinders, prisms and ellips Using these results the influence of lateral compressive stress on the longitudinal tensile strength of concrete has been determined...
