But why the answer is all the above. I mean why we need to test tensile, soundness, ect?

OPC means ordinary portland cement.
mpa = n/mm2.

Truly, for a concrete to be attested for maximum strength all the test should be performed.

Compression strength test instead of tensile strength test for concrete.

MPA means?

Which formula we will use in steel bending. Bend at 90 degree 180 Degree ?

Concrete is strong in compression and weak in tension.

Compressive strength test is important for concrete because it takes on compressive stress. Tensile stress are taken by steel.

For Concrete Tensile Strength is not much important.

All the above test should be done for quality control.
