Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The tensile strength of concrete increases with increase in the loading rate, the value of Kd.s being higher for saturated concrete than for dry.

  2. 2.

    The limit of extensibility for dry and saturated concrete is the same and does not depend on the loading rate in the range 3–3000 kg/(cm2.sec).

  3. 3.

    The magnitude of preliminary static compression of dry and saturated concrete does not affect the value of Kd.s. in tension.
