The laboratory tests conducted on the materials obtained include Sieve Analysis (particle size distribution), aggregate impact value, aggregate crushing value, specific gravity and slump test. Concrete cubes were cast using a mix ratio of 1:1:2.5 for grade M30, 1:1.1:2.8 for grade M40 and 1:1.2:3.1 for grade M50 and were subjected to compressive strength test using the conventional crushing machine and the SAI-HUKP machine. The result shows that concrete cubes produced with concrete grade M30 have a compressive strength of 29.21N/mm2 and 24.65N/mm2 for both the conventional and SAI-HUKP Machines respectively, while the cubes produced with M40 have 40.4N/mm2 and 49.72N/mm2 respectively, and finally, the cubes produced using grade M50 have 57.2N/mm2 and 58.74N/mm2 respectively. The result was compared and proved accurate. It is recommended that the SAI-HUKP machine should be used in finding compressive strength because it is more accurate and less time-consuming....Preview Download Preview +Other Civil Engineering project topics and materials you might be interested in»Comparing the compressive strength of concrete made with sand as fine aggregate and with chipping dust as fine aggregate»The comparative study of the compressive strength of concrete made with granite to that made with river round stone (pebble) and local stone»The use of computer in civil engineering»Importance of timber in civil engineering construction»Construction and Installation of a Panel Door»Construction of wardrobe key study on wood work»Effect of street trading on traffic performance and control»Assessment of different types of foundation and their mode of construction»Comparison of soil bearing capacity of different locations in Imo state»Investigation into the suitability of sand and gravel materials commonly used in building construction»Investigating the effect of partial replacement of cement with eggshell powder in concrete production»An investigation in to the causes of cracks in building and possible solutions - a case study of Kukar Gesa community in Katsina metropolis»Suitability of available laterite material in Ilorin East local government area for road construction»Determination of the causes, effects of environmental pollution and its possible control within Kwara and Osun state»Model for prediction of rainfall intensity in Lagos
