Relationship Between Compressive Strength and Split Tensile Strength for Sustainable Concrete—A Case Study
Sustainable materials play an important role in civil engineering due to the depletion of natural resources. In this paper, authors have studied the effect of waste materials, i.e. fly ash and silica fume with superplasticizer on compressive and split tensile strength of concrete. Adopting recommendations of Indian standard, mix design was performed and quantities of cement, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate were computed. The water–cement ratios in all mixes were kept at 0.32. After curing, the specimens were tested for compressive strength and split tensile test after 3, 7 and 28 days of curing period. The integral absolute error evaluated for all the samples is found to be well within the recommended limits. The relationship was developed between compressive strength and tensile strength of concrete. The derived relationship was compared with the relationships developed by other authors. It is found that relationship developed is in agreement with the other authors, and the relationship derived is in close proximity with the relation developed by Oluokun et al. i.e. fsts = 0.294fc0.69.
