For 3 days = 30 percent,
For 7 days = 67.7 percent,
For 14 days = 90 percent,
For 28 days = 99 percent,
So, the answer is 13.5 min.

The maximum compressive strength on 15 cm cubes of M 20 grade concrete at 7 days must be min 13.5, so the nearest answer is 15 (C).

In case of M20,

7th-day strength shall be:

20 * 0.65 = 13 N/Sqmm.

The answer seems to be wrong. Concrete achieves 65% strength in 7 days. Characteristic compressive strength of M20 Grade Concrete is 20N/mm2. So 65% of 20 = 13N/mm2.

Which is correct? @Barish Raut.

PRABHU said:   8 years ago
The Answer should be 15.

Chhaya said:   8 years ago
According to me, the Concrete achieve 66.666% strength So the answer is 13.24.

Roy said:   8 years ago
Yes, for M15 grade, it is 10 n/mm^2.

Chandrakant said:   7 years ago
67% is 70% approx.

Hence 14N/mm2 answer should be 15.

Manohar said:   7 years ago
According to me, the answer is 13.
