relationship between cube test results and the uniaxial compressive strengths of materials such as concrete. As a result of a recent investigation into the uniaxial strength of cubes and cylinders of gypsum plaster, one of us (E.T.R) has demonstrated that, with smooth ends, longitudinal splitting will occur. It would appear
Test for compressive strength is carried out either on a cube or cylinder. Various standard codes recommend a concrete cylinder or concrete cube as the standard specimen for the test. American Society for Testing …

Bisher [8] while studying compressive strength relationship between cylinders an d cores used four different w/c ratios, two types of cements, and two types of aggregates. From comparison of test results of cylinders and cored specimen, the authors observed linear

A concrete slab of 400Cum was poured for which 33 cubes were cast for 28 days compressive test. The standard deviation for the 33 number of cubes tests is calculated below- Table 3: Test Result of Concrete Cubes Table …
Tests on cubes and cylinders with h/d = 1 yield similar results. A comparative study between 150 x 150 x 300 mm prisms and 150 x 300 mm cylinders showed little difference between strengths of the …
1. The test result of a sample shall be the average compressive strengths of the two specimens tested at 28 days. 2. If the difference between the compressive strengths of two test cubes made from one sample of designed mix concrete exceeds 15% of the test result, the test result for that sample shall not be used to calculate the standard ...

This investigation assessed the effect of compressive strength and curing age of concrete on the Cylinder– Cube Strength Relationship (CCSR) of South African Concretes. Cubes and cylinders were cast for 7, 28 and 56 day curing ages from 36 concrete mixes …
If your compression ratio is 12:1 theoretically that means the compression is 12 times atmospheric pressure. (atmospheric pressure compressed to 1/12th its uncompressed volume) At sea level there is 14.7psi of atmospheric pressure. 14.7 x 12 = 178psi. Not far from 185 and the compression tester could be off that much.

Three important factors affect concrete compression: the specimen size, geometry, and friction at its ends, all affect the observed results. The notion of size effect, as the change in response to scaling a structure, is not new. Da Vinci was one of the first to talk about such a concept.

Past efforts to determine empirical conversion relationships and conversion factors have shown that it is difficult (if not impossible) to predict relationships between cylinder and cube strengths. Past research has also shown the cylinder/cube strength ratio to be between about 0.65 and 0.90, although ratios outside that range have also been ...
