The value of the design compressive strength of bored pile, fcd is given as 0.515fck cyl in EN1992-1-1.
For class C30/37, fcd = 15.45 MPa.
Should the value of in-situ compressive strength of bored pile concrete be not lesser than 15.45 for class C30/37 concrete?
Hi Hturkak
Assuming that C32/40 concrete is used for the casting of bored pile, what will be the minimum in-situ compressive strength to be achieved for the hardened concrete of the bored pile?
In other words, if core sample of the hardened concrete of bored pile is taken and tested for...
BS EN 13791 gives rules for in situ checking if the hardened concrete in structure could achieve the designed compressive strength conform to the class of concrete.
If the measured in-situ values are expressed as equivalent cube strengths, it will usually be found that they are less than the...
