Influence of Concrete Strength Grade and Age on Three Tensile Strengths

Article Preview

Abstract:

Uniaxial tensile strength is one of the important strength parameters of concrete. In this study, two test methods were applied to determine direct tensile strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength of fly ash concrete specimens with the same cross section and different strength grades. Relationship among the uniaxial tensile, splitting tensile and flexural strength of concrete were researched. Furthermore, the influence of concrete strength and age to the three tensile strengths were specifically analyzed in the paper.
