fcu vs fc'
(OP)
I dont know if anyone has tried this but I was wondering if you use the design mix to form a cylinder (according to ACI) and use the same design mix to form a cube (according to BS / Eurocode)will it come up with the same strength? or atleast an insignificant difference?
I read from some other forum that it will not yield similar results and that the cube will be stronger. I dont know if that is real or the guy was just playing with us. because by theory they should be the same right?

I wouldn't worry about it though, as I am sure the Eurocode is calibrated to these test results.

The first number is for compressive testing done in a 150 mm diameter and 300 mm high cilinder, the secondo one is for a 150 mm cube.
