Why we are using 150 mm X 150 mm X 150 mm cubes for testing
the compressive strength of concrete in CTM and why not
other sizes?



Why we are using 150 mm X 150 mm X 150 mm cubes for testing the compressive strength of concrete in..

Answer / ratheesh

concrete Cube mould size is 150 X 150 X 150 and 100 X 100
X100mm.

Mostly site construction are using 150mm mould only, but
some RMC company's are using 100mm mould.
Cost deduction is the only reson.
