When the concrete start to properly mixed and gain strength?
Concrete begins to gain strength once water is added to the cement, initiating a chemical reaction called hydration. This process typically starts within minutes of mixing, but the concrete reaches significant strength over time, with most of its strength developing within the first 28 days. Proper mixing ensures that the ingredients are evenly distributed, which is crucial for achieving the desired strength and durability. Factors like temperature, moisture, and the specific mix design can also influence the rate of strength gain.
What is the compressive strength of M35 concrete at 14 days?
35N/mm2 the above answer is terrible. at 14 days there is no guarantee of what the strength will be, as strength gain is rapid with pue OP it will tend t be greater than 50% of the target characteristic strength; however, with any pozzolans in the mix (e.g. PFA/GGBA) the strength gain over time is slower and can be espected to achieve greater strengths than that of pure OPC the question is too vague to answer. the mix design is pivotal in calculating strength
What is the effect of age of concrete upon the water-cement ratio and strength curve?
The age of concrete significantly affects its water-cement ratio and strength. As concrete matures, its strength generally increases due to the ongoing hydration of cement particles, which leads to a denser microstructure. Initially, higher water-cement ratios may lower strength but are essential for workability; as concrete cures, the effective water-cement ratio decreases, contributing to strength gain over time. Ultimately, strength curves show that concrete continues to gain strength well beyond the initial setting period, often achieving substantial increases up to several months or years, depending on conditions.
What is difference between 43 and 53 grade opc cement?
43 grade OPC Cement it denotes the compressive strength of concrete in 43 Mega pascals will attain in 28 days. it is normally used for pavements, Non RCC structures and which are not important for initial strength. where as 53 Grade OPC Cement it denotes the compressive strength of 53 Mega Pascals will attain in concrete with the 28days, and it is used for RCC strengths and which are important to gain initial strength.
Differences between hydraulic and non hydraulic cement?
Hydraulic cements are material that set and harden after being combined with water as a result of chemical reaction with the mixing water, and that after hardening retain strength and stability even under water. Non-hydraulic cement include such materials such as plaster of paris, which must be kept dry in order to gain strength .
