Question 1

What is the primary function of the flexural strength test?

  • To measure compressive strength
  • To assess tensile strength under bending
  • To evaluate bond strength

💡 Hint: Think about what happens when concrete is loaded in a bending manner.

Question 2

True or False: Third-point loading applies a single load at one-third span distance.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Visualize the loading configuration on a beam.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A concrete beam with dimensions of 100 mm x 100 mm x 500 mm fails with a load of 15 kN during the flexural strength test. Calculate its flexural strength using both center-point and third-point loading formulas.

💡 Hint: Make sure to substitute the right values into the formulas and calculate each method independently.

Question 2

If the dimensions of a beam are doubled, how does that affect its flexural strength based on the original loading conditions?

💡 Hint: Think about how changing the physical dimensions could impact structural performance under bending.
