In the ultrasound test performed in the axial direction on a 75x75x285 mm edge concrete prism weighing 850 g, it was measured that the sound passed through the 285 mm length in 78 microseconds. It was determined that a sample made of the aforementioned concrete made a unit shortening of 7.4x10-4 under 200 kgf/cm2 tension. The f - ε behavior of concrete is represented by the SMITH-YOUNG function. Calculate the possible compressive strength of the concrete in question. (Take the value of e as 2.71.) V=  ?km/s δ=  ? kg/dm³ E= ?kgf/cm²  ε0=  ?. x10-3  fc=  kgf/cm²  = MPa ?

The f - ε behavior of concrete is represented by the SMITH-YOUNG function. Calculate the possible compressive strength of the concrete in question. (Take the value of e as 2.71.)

V=  ?km/s

δ=  ? kg/dm³

E= ?kgf/cm² 

ε0=  ?. x10-3 

fc=  kgf/cm²  = MPa ?
