Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a beam with a known width and depth undergoing a flexural strength test. If it fails under a specific load, how would you calculate its flexural strength?

💡 Hint: Remember the flexural strength formula based on loading type!

Challenge 2 Hard

You have varying curing times for specimens tested for bond strength. How might these differences impact your results?

💡 Hint: Consider how water affects concrete's strength.
