Back to Main Page. Strength of Cement Strength of cement is the most important of all the cement properties. Grades mentioned in the cement bags as 53/43 grade OPC/PPC in fact represent the strength of the cement. 53 Grade OPC Cement simply means that 28-days compressive strength of the cement-mortar cubes prepared out of that cement in a standard manner will be of 53 MPa.

In very high-strength concrete mixtures (greater than 70 MPa) the crushing strength of the aggregate can be a limiting factor to the ultimate compressive strength. In lean concretes (with a high water-cement ratio) the crushing strength of the aggregates is not so significant.

Compressive strength of concrete is the Strength of hardened concrete measured by the compression test. The compression strength of concrete is a measure of the concrete''s ability to resist loads which tend to compress it. It is measured by crushing cylindrical concrete specimens in compression testing machine.

The load at which the concrete collapses indicates its compressive strength, and from this can be calculated an array of useful information.

Concrete cube testing or cylinder testing is done to check the development of the strength of the concrete. In other words, we test the concrete to check whether it has reached or developed beyond the characteristic strength of concrete assume in the design. Based on the test results, conformity can be checked as per the relevant standards.

For normal concrete and HSC, the concrete compressive strength test results from cube specimens are generally higher than cylinders specimens [6]. As states in BS 1881, the compressive strength of concrete gained by cylinder specimens is equal to 0.8 times of the compressive strength gained by cube specimens.

The crushing of concrete cubes or cylinder samples is required in a construction especially concrete structures. The reason why this is to verify the strength given in the design mix. Let say for example for a concrete column commonly it has 60 megapascals of specified strength. When you crush it, the result should be equal or more than 60 Mpa.

Keep in mind that the standard level of strength for post-tensioning is 75% and in some cases, your concrete can reach this level of strength sooner than expected. By employing the maturity method, you’ll be able to closely monitor when your concrete reaches the necessary level of strength so you can move forward post-tensioning as soon as possible.
