The document discusses properties of concrete including: 1) Standard cylinder specimens of 300mm height and 150mm diameter are used for concrete testing in Australia. 2) Compressive strength testing of cured 28-day cylinders is used to determine concrete quality, but test results vary so statistical methods are used. 3) Tensile strength is also important and is measured using modulus of rupture tests on small beams or cylinder-splitting tests that apply a tensile stress. 4) Other properties discussed include shear strength, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, modular ratio, density, shrinkage over time, and creep which is a reduction in volume over time under external forces.

MAIN IDEA LESSON 8 THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE : SPECIMENS FOR TESTING -Paragraf 1 : The standard cylinder, 300 mm high by 150 mm in diameter, is the basic specimen used for testing concrete in Australia.

LESSON 9 THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE : CONCRETE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH -Paragraf 1 : The compressive strength of a standard concrete cylinder, prepared and cured for 28 day in accordance with AS 1020, is used as the prime means of determining the quality of a given batch of concrete. -Paragraf 2 : The inevitable variability of test results means that statistical methods must be applied in order to obtain a measure of the concrete strength for design purposes.

LESSON 10 THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE : TENSILE TEST FOR CONRETE - Paragraf 1 : For certain aspects of design it is necessary to obtain the measure of the tensile strength of concrete. -Paragraf 2 : The modulus of rupture test is carried out on a standard small beam of crosssection 150 x 150 mm and length 700 mm, which is supported over a span of 600 mm (Fig. 1.5a). -Paragraf 3 : The cylinder-splitting test is so-called because a concrentrated line load is applied to the sylindrical specimen laid on edge, producing a tensile stress across the vertical diameter of the specimen (Fig. 1.5b).

LESSON 11 THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE : SHEAR, ELASTICITY, AND CONCRETE DENSITY 11. 1 Pure shear strength Pure shear strength is encountered only when beding is not present of is very small. Such as in keyways and on boding planes between surfaces. 11. 2 Modulus of elasticity (Ec) Strictly speaking, concrete does not have an elastic modulus; this is because, as for any elastoplastic materials, stress is not proportional to strain over a large part of the stress range obtained in tests. 11. 4 Poissons ratio (v) Poissons is the ratio of transverse to longitudinal strain, under axial load or stress, within the elastic range. 11. 5 Modular ratio (n) The modular ratio, designated by n, is the ratio of the elastic modulus for steel to the modulus adopted for a particular grade of concrete. 11. 6 Concrete density Concrete density, utilizing normal weight aggregates, varies from 2300 to 2500 kg/m3 when reinforced, and an average figure of 2400 kg/m3 is often adopted.

LESSON 12 TIME-DEPENDENT CHANGES IN CONCRETE VOLUME : SHRINKAGE Shirinkage occurs of the concrete is allowed to dry in the atmosphere.

LESSON 13 TIME-DEPENDENT CHANGES IN CONCRETE VOLUME : CREEP -Paragraf 1 : Creep is the term applied to a reduction in concrete volume due to the application ef external forces over a period of time, and may be present in a structure for a considerable time (3 - 6 year).
