Transcribed Image Text:Problem 4a.
You test a concrete cylinder having a diameter of 6.00 in and a gauge length
of 12 in by applying compression forces. The results of your test are reported
in the table as load vs. contraction. Draw, by hand on engineering paper, a
stress-strain diagram using scales of:
1 in. = 0.5 ksi
lin. = 0.2 x 10"
g in.
From the dingram, determine approximately the Modulus of Elasticity.
