Get PriceWhile traditional concrete normally has a compressive strength ranging anywhere from 2 500 to 5 000 psi UHPC can have a compressive strength of up to 10 times that of traditional concrete After just 14 days of curing UHPC has a compressive strength of 20 000 psi This number increases to 30 000 psi when fully cured for 28 days
Get PriceWhat is the compressive strength of concrete at 28 days A typical concrete compressive strength specification requires 4 000 to 5 000 psi at 28 days Why do we test concrete at 28 days Since 35th day was far away from 30 days the engineers started to test the concrete on 28th day
