    Verification of compressive strength on different sized hsc specimens

  • Original language description

    HPC and UHPC concretes are getting employed more and more often in civil engineering structures. These concretes are characterized mainly by its high compressive strength. Destructive testing on specimens 150/150/150 mm according to ČSN EN 206 is very demanding with respect to the equipment of the laboratory. To crush UHPC cube with 160 MPa compressive strength, the force of circa 3600 kN is required. The specimens produced sometimes reach 200 MPa strength. In this paper, the results of research focusedon determination of compressive strength on HSC cubes of different edge sizes will be presented. The concrete mix tested is called HSC (not HPC), because no properties other than compressive strength were measured. The composition of concrete was intentionally modified to decrease the compressive strength of some specimens under 160 MPa.
