In this study, effect of the age on the strength development of concrete was investigated. For this purpose, specimens casted with ready mix concrete for different grades of concrete obtained from ready-mix concrete firms available in Diyarbakir city which is the one of the biggest cities of Turkey. A few sets with different grade of concrete cube specimens were used in the experimental work. Each set includes more than 40 specimens. For measuring concrete strength development, two different tests were used which are ultrasonic pulse velocity testing (UPV) and uniaxial compressive strength testing. After a bunch of UPV and compressive strength tests, strength development for early ages were evaluated and defined. By this work it is targeted to define the path of strength development of certain grades of concrete used in the east regions of Turkey. Another aim of the work is to be able to determine concrete strength through non-destructive UPV tests. As a result of the work, it was seen that concrete strength development for early ages are not linearly proportional to the age. And furthermore, UPV measurements can give important information relating progress in concrete strength. |
