Compressive strength strength of cement is done rather than tensile strength. The compressive strength of OPC on 3rd day, 7th day is important. On 7th day, compressive strength of OPC is 19MPa.

All above test should be done for quality control.

Compressive strength is more important than tensile strength.

Concrete is the binding material, it is essential of setting time, strength, soundness.

For check the quality of concrete, all the mention test is essential.

Consistency test is essential.

Sri ram said:   1 decade ago
By doing all these tests we can control the quality of cement thoroughly.

Usman said:   1 decade ago
Tensile test is not done of cement.

Rohit chhloriya said:   1 decade ago
Tensile strength are no discuss, only compressive strength calculate, because it is 10% of compressive strength.

Hi friends please explain:

1) Type of test in fresh concrete ?
2) Why concrete is segregated ?
