Concrete Technology Part 1

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