Depends on the concrete. There are different mixes to produce different strengths, for different uses. Concrete used for a sidewalk might have a crush strength of 3000 lbs per square inch. Concrete used for a bridge may be 10,000 lbs per quare inch.

Very little but your tool will wear out very quickly. Pavement breaking requires compromises in design to do the job and not wear out quickly.

What is the creep in concrete?

Concrete creep is defined as: deformation of structure under sustained load. Basically, long term pressure or stress on concrete can make it change shape. This deformation usually occurs in the direction the force is being applied. Like a concrete column getting more compressed, or a beam bending. Creep does not necessarily cause concrete to fail or break apart. Creep is factored in when concrete structures are designed.
