Best Answer

The units of Mpa is N/mm2 so this means that the concrete can resist a compresion forse of 50 newtons spread over 1 mm2

*Note if this value is a measured value a safety factor needs to be applied if it is to be used in construction, this factor are specified in you country's design code

What what mpa strength is baged premixed concrete?

Bagged Premixed Concrete will achieve an mpa strength of around 20 mpa and is usually expected to reach this at 28 days. The "Rapid Set" Premix Bagged products are only good for about for about 5 mpa. .


What does 25 mpa concrete mean?

They're talking about compressive strength - the amount of force that can be applied to a defined area of the concrete before it fails. 25 MPa concrete in the states would be 3625 psi concrete - very ordinary stuff; the kind in bags at Home Depot is stronger than that.


What is high strength concrete?

Concrete with compressive strength more than 55 MPa is known as high strength concrete.It is used in the construction of bridges, dams. etc.,High strength concrete is produced by adding normal constituents of concrete with admixtures.


What is the yield strength of plain concrete?

The yield strength in this case is equal to the ultimate tensile strength, which is about 0.9-3 MPa without any reinforcement.

Given Concrete cylinders were tested in a compression machine with the following strength results 4620 4580 4400 4460 and 4200 all in psi. Required Find the average strength in MPa?

1 psi = 0.00689475728 MPaAs such the average strength in PSI = (4620 + 4580 + 4400 + 4460 + 4200) / 5= 4452 psiAverage strength in MPa = 4452 x 0.00689475728= 30.69545941056 MPa= 30.7 MPa


What is the difference between M20 and M25 concrete?

M20 give you strength of 20Mpa and M25 give you strength of 25 Mpa after 28 days of curing.
