Abstract:
Concrete is an inhomogeneous building material. It has a considerable and reliable compressive strength and a relative low tensile strength which can be even exhausted locally under unfortunate conditions. It is quite obvious that the concrete tensile strength was always reprehended as the most unreliable concrete property. A simple relationship between tensile- and compressive strength is introduced. The mechanical background of the relation tensile- to compressive strength in case of ‘normal’ and high strength concretes is elucidated. Mechanical bond, too, relies completely on the tensile st

Compression and tension tests were performed on specimens made from high-early-strength concrete, where the strength acceleration was achieved by using a chloride-based accelerating admixture. Comparison with specimens made from concrete without the admixture showed that the concrete with the admixture was significantly weaker in tension for equal compressive strength.Curing times ranged from 3 days to 3 or 4 months while compressive strengths ranged from 16 to 37 MPa depending on the batch and the age at testing.

Abstract:
Low-performance concrete (LPC) is characterized by its low strength and commonly by the presence of large aggregates. This type of concrete was used for construction of load carrying, commonly unreinforced walls in old buildings. The resistance of these buildings with LPC squat walls (of relatively low height-to-length ratio), to in plane horizontal loads, was experimentally investigated in this study. The low compressive strength of these walls, well below that of standard concrete, requires estimation of the relation between the actual LPC compressive strength and its tensile strength, and i

Abstract:
Tensile strength is one of the important mechanical properties of concrete, but it is difficult to measure accurately due to the brittle nature of concrete in tension. The three widely used test methods for measuring the tensile strength of concrete each have their shortcomings: the direct tension test equipment is not easy to set up, particularly for alignment, and there are no standard test specifications; the tensile strengths obtained from the test method of splitting tensile strength (American Society for Testing and Materials, ASTM C496) and that of flexural strength of concrete (ASTM C7

Abstract:
Chemical elements, especially acids, can gradually cause concrete to deteriorate. When concrete deteriorates, the bond between the cement paste and aggregates weakens, decreasing compressive strength. This study aims to analyze the influence of pH levels on concrete's compressive and tensile strength. Concrete specimens with characteristic compressive strengths of 20, 25, and 30 MPa were immersed in solutions with pH levels of 4 (acidic), 7 (neutral), and 10 (alkaline) for 28 days. These study results are from experiments conducted at Brawijaya University, Malang. The results showed that an ac

Effects of aggregate size on the mechanical properties of lightweight concrete (LC) were investigated. Four gradings of lightweight aggregate (LWA) were designed and used to prepare the specimens for compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and flexural strength tests. An estimating method for compressive strength of LC was then established. The compressive strength of tested LC was up to 95 MPa at 90-day curing time. The test results suggested that the absence of medium-size particles decreased the compaction of LC, therefore the density and compressive strength were negatively affec

As a typical brittle material, the tensile strength of concrete is much lower than its compressive strength. The main failure mode of concrete buildings under explosive and impact loading is spalling, so it is crucial to understand the dynamic tensile performance of concrete.

Sandstone is widely used a construction and building material. However, its uniaxial tensile strength (UTS) is not adequately understood.

To characterize the evolution of the stress–strain profiles obtained via these tests, representative expressions were developed in terms of normalized strain and strength.
