Flexural strenght versus compressive strenght
Flexural strenght versus compressive strenght
(OP)
Is it possible to calculated the compresive strenght when you have measured the flexural strenght.

RE: Flexural strenght versus compressive strenght
Because of that and other factors (method of testing, size of specimen, shape and texture of coarse aggregate, moisture condition) , this relation should be ONLY used as an indication not as a decision making.
How ever; an expression used by ACI to relate tensile and compressive strength is:
ft = k ( (fc’)^1/2)
Where ft is the tensile strength, fc’ is the compressive strength and k is a coefficient relating to the factors mentioned earlier.
I used to have a study of the relation between compressive strength and the (flexural ,splitting ,direct) tensile strength tests I will try to find it for you.
I hope this answers some of your questions!
