Situation 3 A compressive strength test were conducted to the following cylinder, Cylinder 1 3015 psi Cylinder 2 2950 psi Cylinder 3 3253 psi Cylinder 4 3004 psi Cylinder 5 3031 psi It is observed that the size of the cylinder is 6% in x 12" which is much bigger that the standard cylinder specimen. 1. What would be the reported compressive strength for each cylinder. 2. What is the average compressive strength? 3. If the target compressive strength at 28 days is 3000 psi, What can you say about the test result?

Question
Situation 3
A compressive strength test were conducted to the following cylinder;
Cylinder 1
3015 psi
Cylinder 2
2950 psi
Cylinder 3
3253 psi
Cylinder 4
3004 psi
Cylinder 5
3031 psi
It is observed that the size of the cylinder is 6% in x 12" which is much bigger that the standard cylinder specimen.
1. What would be the reported compressive strength for each cylinder.
2. What is the average compressive strength?
3.
If the target compressive strength at: 3 days is 3000 psi, What can you say about the test result?
