The Rock Quality Designation (RQD) is critical in geology and civil engineering. RQD is a vital aspect that geologists & engineers depend on RQD while planning projects such as constructing foundations or tunneling. In …
The fineness modulus of coarse aggregates is an index value that indicates the average particle size in such aggregates. The sieve analysis is used to determine the fineness modulus. The fineness modulus can be …
A cement standard consistency is determined by how far the Vicat plunger can penetrate from the Vicat mould base measured in millimetres (mm). In this article you’ll learn: So, if you’re ready to go …
The fineness modulus of cement is an empirical value determined by adding up the percentage of aggregate retained on each sieve in a particular sequence and then dividing the total by 100. It is …
The modulus of rupture measures the tensile strength of concrete beams or slabs. The flexural strength of a slab of unreinforced concrete, a beam, or other structure measures stress and force it can endure …
