0.8 cube strength = cylinder strength (approximate).

Ramvir said:   6 years ago
As per IS code, Cylinder/Cube = range is between 0.77 - 0.96.
It's the correct answer.

The cube strength = 1.25 time of cylindrical strength then cylindrical strength is .85.

Phani said:   5 years ago
Ratio of cylinder strength to cube strength varies from 0.77 -0.96. Thus 0.85 can be taken as approximation ratio.
