Properties of materials

A property of a material describes its characteristics and distinguishes it from the others. The material properties are described it in terms of its hardness, color, appearances, and so on. The material properties generally depend on the type of material, or whether it is a metal or an alloy. There are different kinds of material properties such as mechanical properties, thermal properties, physical properties, and chemical properties. Chemical properties describe the material in terms of a chemical change. The mechanical properties come into existence when the material is acted upon by an external load. Thermal properties are associated with the temperature of the material and specific heat.

You are assigned to monitor the concrete strength gain at a construction site. The ultimate compressive strength of the concrete at its full maturity is 450 kg/m. The average concrete temperature at the construction site is 25 °C during the day and 15 °C during the night (assuming 12-hour day/night cycles). If you assume that the datum temperature (To) is - 10 °C, estimate the strength of concrete after 14 days. (4=35, B=51)Maturity Index, M = E(T - To).
