With regards to concrete strength, a cylinder test strength is usually between 5 and 25 percent less than a cube test strength. You can also try using this equation: fbk=(fck-1.77)/0.83 where fbk is cubic concrete strength and fck is cylindrical strength.
fc'=0.785 fck fck=1.273 fc' fc'=strength of cylinder fck=strength of cube
C25 concrete is a concrete having compressive strength of 25MPa when tested at the 28th day after casting. The specimen can be cube(150x150x150) or cylindrical(125mm by 250mm high). The cube strength has 0.8 times that of cylindrical specimen due to shape factor.
the compressive strength can be converted in to flexural strength by following formula of IS code 456-2000fcr=0.7^/- fck fcr= flexural strength fck= characteristic compressive strength in N/mm2
around 22.. the basic rule is around 70% of target mean strength..
The number relates to the compressive strength of a cube of concrete when tested (i.e. 30 N/mm2 or 40N/mm2) The higher the number the greater the strength of the concrete. The choice of concrete grade is usually made at the design stage for the strucutre and effects the overall strength and resistance of the strucutre to decay. You would use a higher strength concrete in a more exposed environment. It is important to use the concrete grade specified for the proposed strucutre.

Cylindrical strength = 85% of Cube strength.
fc'=0.87 fck fc'= cylinder strength fck= cube strength
cylinder
The equivalent concrete for M-30 cylinder strength is M-40 cube strength
Because I say so.
Reasons for concrete cube to have greater compressive strength as compared to cylinder iscontact area of a standard cube mould with the upper platen in the testing machine is more which results in more confinement .more confinement resist against specimen expansion resulting in more compressive strength
yes! A cube is a type of prism. A prism is a subcategory of a cylinder. Then I cube is a type of cylinder
The difference in compressive strength is due to the difference between the modulus of elasticity of concrete and that of the steel which is used to apply the compressive force on the concrete. The pressure applies a lateral confinement pressure which is equal to d/3 meaning that for the cylinder, 2d/3 is confined leaving d/3 unconfined whereas for the cylinder 2d/3 is confined means all of the cube is confined. This leads to the cube having a higher compressive strength that the cylinder. For more information, try to read about the triaxial test and the effect of confinement on the compressive strength of soil samples.
To convert from cubic meters to cubic feet, use this formula:cubic meters x 35.31 = cubic feet
There is not much difference between a cube and a cylinder. The cube is a 3d square and a cylinder is actually 3d circle in a rectangle form.
a cube is a 3d square and a cylinder is 3d circle + rectangle shape.
