In this study, two types of special experiments are carried out to understand flexural compressive strength size effect of concrete members. The first type is an ordinary cylindrical specimen (CS) with a fully penetrated and vertically standing plate type notch at the mid-height of the specimen, which is loaded in compression at the top surface (e.g., in the parallel direction to the notch

The compressive strength of BAC increases with the nominal size of aggregate increases for a cement content of 150 kg/m 3 , but when the cement content reaches 200 kg/m3, the compressive strength
Dec 07, 1992 The compressive strength of 70‐, 120‐, 200‐, and 250‐mm concrete cubes, subjected to four different curing regimes, was determined at the ages of 28 and 90 days, in order to study the influence of specimen size on the effect of curing regimes on cube strength. In the first curing regime the specimens were exposed unprotected to 30 C/40
Jul 07, 2021 The slope method and the parameter method were used to calculate the size effect coefficient and the results showed that the linear regression parameter analysis method is more efficient for analyzing the size effect. It is concluded that the size effect coefficients of compressive strength, ultimate load, elastic modulus, ductility, and
The compressive strength of an ordinary concrete after 28 days may be represented by the Bolomey equation where and are the mass of cement and water, and is the air volume. is a coefficient that depends on the characteristics of aggregates. is the compressive strength of the standardized mortar after 28 days
Mar 20, 2018 The study on preparation technology of recycled concrete with economical and technical feasibility has gained more serious attention in each country due to its involvement and effect on the environment protection and the sustainable development of human society. In this study, we conducted a control variable test to investigate and assess the influence of the aggregate size on the strength
For concrete mixing of ordinary compressive strength with no silica fume that cured in water in 90 and 150 days, the compressive strength will increase by approximately 20 and 25 per cent

Jul 17, 2014 Seven different sizes of multiwalled nanotubes (MWNTs) were used to produce MWNT-cement composites. A trend was observed regarding the effect of nanotube size on compressive strength of composites in most cases. MWNT with outside diameter (OD)
Mar 01, 1978 Abstract. Three series of experiments were carried out to examine the effect of the size and type of aggregate on the size effect in the compressive strength of concrete from the standpoint that it may result from the geometrical heterogeneity of concrete system. According to the test results, the size effect in the concrete strength was closely related to the ratio of the diameter of specimen to that of aggregate (D/d)
Dec 01, 2000 Test results obtained on the effect of specimen size and aggregate size on concrete compressive strength and modulus of elasticity are presented. The concrete was prepared using 4.75, 9.5, 19.0, 37.5, and 75-mm nominal maximum size aggregate. Over 600 cylinders were cast and tested for concrete compressive strength and modulus of elasticity
Abstract. The specimen size and shape effects on the compressive strength of higher strength concrete were investigated on different sized cylinders having constant length-to-diameter ratio ( l d ), different sized cubes, and cylinders with various l d for 40, 60, and 75 MPa compressive strength levels. The apparent strength values of 75mm diameter cylinder and 75 and 100mm cube specimens were lower than those of
Well known as the size effect, the strength of a member tends to decrease when its size increases. Therefore, in view of recent increased interest in the size effect of concrete this research focuses on the size effect of two main classes of compressive strength of concrete: pure axial compressive strength and flexural compressive strength

The scale effect in the case of normal-weight concrete of different types—plain, ordinary, self-compacting, high strength and ultra-high strength (reactive powder concrete), fiber reinforced—was proven in numerous studies, e.g., [23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34]. There are two general conclusions resulting from this research concerning normal-weight concrete: (1) the higher the concrete strength, the lesser the scale effect
