Question
Flexure strength of concrete is determined as:
A.
Modulus of rigidity
B.
Modulus of rupture
C.
Modulus of plasticity
D.
Modulus of elasticity
Answer ( Option B)

Modulus of rupture

Solution

Flexural strength of concrete is also called as modulus of rupture.
Tensile strength of concrete in flexure is called flexural strength.
As per IS code,
                         
Where, fcr = Flexural strength of concrete (N/mm2)
Fck = Characteristic strength (N/mm2).
It is used to determine the onset of cracking or the loading at which cracking starts in a structure.
