Question 1

What does compressive strength indicate?

  • The resistance of concrete to tension
  • The maximum load concrete can withstand
  • The proportion of materials in concrete

💡 Hint: Think about what happens when a heavy load is applied to concrete.

Question 2

True or False: SCC has higher durability due to its lower permeability.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how permeability affects long-term concrete strength.
