Tensile strength isn't even needed.

As per design. Usually the class of A1 is 1500 psi and A2 is 2500psi.

To prepare concrete with portland cement we must know the characteristic compressive strength within the span of 7days and 28 day curing.

What is bleeding in concrete?

Vishnu said:   9 years ago
At the time of bleeding, water comes out of the surface of concrete being lowest specific gravity among all other ingredients.

All the above test should be done for quality control. Because the setting time, soundness is very important.
