5.1 Care must be exercised in the interpretation of the significance of compressive strength determinations by this test method since strength is not a fundamental or intrinsic property of concrete made from given materials. Values obtained will depend on the size and shape of the specimen, batching, mixing procedures, the methods of sampling, molding, and fabrication and the age,

The Compressive strength test will result in a compressive load on the cube and the cylinder during the test procedure. This process will result in the Lateral Expansion of the sample which will result in the Poisson's ratio effect. The figure-1 below shows the compressive testing arrangement of a cube.

Basic properties. The following Table gives the compressive strengths (based on cylinders and cubes), modulus of elasticity and tensile strength for various strength classes of normal weight concrete. They are taken from Table 3.1 of the Eurocode 2, which gives additional properties as well as values for other strength classes.

Concrete strength measured using concrete cubes produce results different than concrete cylinders. Conservative estimates put concrete cylinders at 80% of concrete cubes, for high-strength concrete some say the percentage is near . The ratio between the cube(150mm) and cylindrical sample(150×300 mm).

Strength of hardened concrete measured by the compression test. The compression strength of concrete is a measure of the concrete's ability to resist loads which tend to compress it. The compressive strength is measured by crushing cylindrical concrete specimens in compression testing machine. The compressive strength of concrete is calculated by the failure load

Compressive Strength Because concrete is an excellent material for resisting compressive loading, it is used in dams, founda-tions, columns, arches and tunnel linings where the principal loading is in compression. Strength is usually determined by means of test cylinders made of fresh concrete on the job and tested in compression at various ages. The requirement is a certain strength at an age

CIP 9 - Low Concrete Cylinder Strength Strength test results of concrete cylinders are used as the ba-sis of acceptance of ready mixed concrete when a strength requirement is specified. Cylinders are molded from a sample of fresh concrete, cured in standard conditions and tested at a particular age, as indicated in the specification, usually at 28 days. Procedures must be in accordance with

Concrete compressive strength does not depend on the full hydration of its cement particles but essentially on their closeness. 10,11 In a concrete having a water/cement ratio lower than 0.42, hydration stops when there is no more water to hydrate the cement particles. Below this critical value of 0.42, very fine cement particles can be fully hydrated but only the surface of the coarsest ones
