Greetings. I wish to know if there is an empirical formula that relates the compressive strength of mortar, to its elastic modulus. Is there any?

Mortar stiffness is generally nonlinear. I doubt it.

See ASTM C 270.

Does this imply that the Young's modulus of mortar is non-attainable? I thought there was an intrisic relationship between E-mortar and f-mortar
