While compared to its compressive strength, concrete is weak in tension.
The compressive strength of the material would correspond to the stress at the red point shown on the curve.
Therefore, it is a trade-off between cost saving benefits and the loss in compressive strength.
It has good translucency and universal yellow shade, with early high compressive strength.
This was due largely to the high compressive strength of concrete.
In general, the compressive strength of the material is proportional to its density.
It was found that decreasing acetylation created an increase in compressive strength.
By reference to the conversion chart, the rebound value can be used to determine the compressive strength.
All concrete will crack independent of whether or not it has sufficient compressive strength.
When the limit of compressive strength is reached, materials are crushed.
