Compressive strength of concrete, Cube test and Procedure

Objective and significance: – Compressive strength of concrete is capability of the concrete to resist compressive force. Concrete is good in compression and steel is good in tension. That is why concrete and reinforcement of steel is good combination to give strength to structure. Compressive strength is the main property of the concrete. So knowing […]

V funnel Test for Self compacting Concrete

Self Compacting Concrete: – It is special type of concrete, It has excellent deformity it it can be moulded without any vibration. its cohesive nature makes it resistive to bleeding and segregation at the time of handling. V funnel Test:- This test was developed in Japan. The equipment consists of a V-shaped funnel. The V-funnel

Temperature test of Fresh Concrete

Heat of hydration is the process by which concrete liberate heat. this process is the reason heat is generated while concreting. Excessive heat of hydration may lead to energy loss and crack formation in the concrete. Controlled heat in fresh concrete insures the quality and desired strength of concrete. Significance: – Heat of hydration is
