Concrete Technology Part 1

1. Approximate value of shrinkage strain in concrete is
2. The compressive strength of an ordinary Portland cement (1:3 cement mortar cube) after 7 days test should not be less than
3. Which of the following cement is expected to have the highest compressive strength after 3 days?
4. The removal of excess air after placing concrete helps in increasing the strength of concrete by
5. The setting time of cement is the governing factor for
6. The resistance of an aggregate to the effect of hydration of cement and weather is called
7. The strength of concrete using air entraining cement gets reduced by
8. Tensile strength of concrete is measured by
9. Workability of concrete is inversely proportional to
10. Too much fineness of cement
11. The property of the ingredients to separate from each other while placing the concrete is called
12. The binding material in the mortar is also called   [ SSC JE 2019]
13. The percentage of water for making a cement paste of normal consistency varies from
14. According to IS 456, under normal circumstances, the maximum cement content in kg/cum (including fly ash and slag) allowed
15. Tensile strength of concrete is approximately______________of the compressive strength of concrete.
16. The strength of concrete after one year as compared to 28 days strength is about
17. The property of fresh concrete, in which the water in the mix tends to rise to the surface while placing and compacting, is called
18. As the cube size increases, the strength of concrete
19. A concrete cube of 15 cm and a cylinder of 150 mm diameter and 300 mm height are tested for compressive strength, the strength of the cube compared to cylinder will be
20. The aggregate is said to be elongated when
21. The ratio of 7 days and 28 days cube strength is
22. The degree of grinding of cement is called
23. The failure strain of concrete under direct compression and under flexure are respectively
24. The cement, widely used in retaining walls is
25. The chemical reaction between cement and water is
26. Strength of commonly used concrete for constructing low rise residential buildings is
27. Increase in moisture content in concrete
28. Strength of concrete increases with
29. Workability of concrete is directly proportional to
30. The fineness of cement is measured in terms of
31. The resistance of an aggregate to wear is known as
32. According to IS: 269-1976, the requirement of an ordinary Portland cement is that
33. The phenomenon by virtue of which the cement does not undergo large change in volume when treated with water is known as
34. The cement concrete, from which entrained air and excess water are removed after placing it in position, is called
35. Modulus of rupture of concrete gives
