Ratio between Dynamic Young’s Moduli of Cementitious Materials Determined through Different Methods

Ratio between Dynamic Young’s Moduli of Cementitious Materials Determined through Different Methods

Paper in proceedings (conference paper)

The article deals with determining the dynamic Young’s modulus of cementitious materials at their early age. For the experiment, pastes, mortars, and concretes were prepared with different water-cement ratios but with exactly the same input components. The dynamic Young’s modulus was always determined at the ages of 24 and 72 hours using two methods – ultrasonic pulse velocity and resonance. The outcome of the article is the discovered relationships between the calculated Young’s moduli ratio and compressive strength and also the Young’s modulus itself.
