y we need to take 28 days strength as compressive
strength ? y cant we take 30 th day

Answer Posted / ravi

In 28 days, concrete will gain its complete strength. After 28 days, you can take the strength on any day. You will get the same result. We need the results as early as possible. 28 days the minimum time it takes for the concrete to gain its complete strength. So, we take 28 day strength.

As per Kandal suggestions, we have implemented rolling starts on 140 (+/- 5) degrees and we kept 3 rollars to complete the rolling before falling 125 degrees and the Aggregate AIV is below 22. But When the DBM bed is being rolled 3rd high viabration, (Before 1 plain & low ,2 high Viabrations), the aggregate is getting sharp edge agg. projections are damaged. As the literature is said that, the VG-30 Grade having better control the temp. susceptibility than Penetration grade. if so we could not get this problem at site. But we are facing on site. let me know.
