| Descripció: | This study compared the concrete’s compressive strength of cylinders of 100 mm by 200 mm and 150 mm by 300 mm for two different mix designs, and two different sizes of coarse aggregate. Two hundred eighty eight concrete cylinders were made and tested; 144 at age of 7 days and 144 at age of 28 days. The study revealed that the average resistance measured in cylinders of 100 mm diameter is 10% greater than the resistance measured in cylinders of 200 mm diameter. Additionally it was found that the standard deviation is approximately 20% higher in the cylinders with a diameter of 100 mm and in this case, that the maximum aggregate size did not influence the compressive strength recorded in cylinders of 100 mm by 200 mm. |
