Determination of percentage of water to produce normal consistency paste of hydraulic cement: (ASTM C 187-04) Determination of initial and final setting time of hydraulic cement (ASTM C 191-04 a, BS-4550, JIS-R5201) Determination of aggregate impact value (AIV) of given aggregate sample (BS-812) To perform sieve analysis and to determine fineness modulus of aggregate samples…
To study the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beams and to find their flexural strength:
Determination of modulus of rupture of concrete
Job # 13: Determination of modulus of rupture of concrete (ASTM C 78 – 02) Significance: This test method covers the determination of the flexural strength of concrete by the use of a simple beam with third-point loading. This test method is used to determine the flexural strength of specimens prepared and cured in accordance…
Determination of tensile strength of concrete by Split cylinder test:
Job # 12: Determination of tensile strength of concrete by Split cylinder test: (ASTM C 496/C 496 M-04) Significance: This test method is used for the determination of splitting tensile strength of cylindrical concrete specimen. Splitting tensile strength is generally greater than the direct tensile strength and lower than the flexural strength (modulus of rupture)….
Determination of the Tensile Strength of Concrete by Double Punch Test
Job # 11: Determination of the Tensile Strength of Concrete by Double Punch Test Significance: It is an indirect method through which tensile strength of concrete is estimated. Apparatus: Denison Leeds, England Compression testing machine Testing Samples Punches of diameter 37 mm (2 in number, to be placed at the top and bottom of the…
To perform the compacting factor test
Job # 10: To perform the compacting factor test: Significance: This test also gives the workability of concrete indirectly. This test is appropriate for concrete with the maximum aggregate size of 40mm. Apparatus: Two hoppers each in the shape of frustum of a cone and one cylinder. The hoppers have hinge door at bottom and…
