A concrete test cylinder with a cross-sectional area of 28.3 in squared is to be tested in axial compression. Before loading two marks are scribed on the cylinder precisely 8 in apart (as shown in the figure below) when the load is 40,000 lb the marks are measured and found to be 7.997 in apart determine the E value for this concrete. Assume an approximately linear relationship between stress and strain.
True or false: Generally speaking, concrete will be priced the same regardless of its designed strength, 4,500 psi concrete will cost the same as 3,000 psi concrete.
