The Influence of Concrete Composition on Young's Modulus

This paper presents a dynamic method of concrete testing using Young's modulus. The advantages of the method are compared with the static method and the possibilities of application in practice are discussed. The procedure for concrete dynamic Young's modulus testing is presented. Young's modulus of concrete samples of different compositions have been tested by static and dynamic methods. Conclusions related to Young's modulus of concrete values obtained from static and dynamic testing methods and the influence of concrete composition on these values, have been drawn.
