what will be the difference in compressive test results for a
150 mm cube, a 150 mm cylinder and a 300 mm cube

Answer Posted / abdul hamid

15O mm cylinder strength (f'c)will be 80% in value for the
150mm Cubes(fcu) (in general). e.g. if fcu =50MPA for same
concret f'c = 40MPa.
But conversion of cylinder strength to cube strength is
very complex. It depends on cylider dia, and height etc.

In ACI 318, the relation curve is given for ready reference.
