The curing time of concrete directly controls the increase in compressive strength in CMU. In general, the majority of strength is achieved during the 28th day of its curing period. Nevertheless, curing concrete blocks is an infinite process, and the achieved strength after 28 days is very minimal. Temperature & relative humidity

Crushing strength is another term for compressive strength. M50 denotes concrete mix with a characteristic cube compressive strength (denoted by fck) of 50 N/square mm or 50 MPa. In other words, M50 grade concrete possess a crushing strength of 50 N/square mm or 50 MPa. (Source of image - CT Theory and Practice by MS Shetty)

The stress has to be transferred somehow from the concrete to reinforcing material. This is where Fig 6 comes in. If there is a reinforcing nail or bar in the concrete as it sets, the concrete will shrink around the bar and indoing so will grip the bar very very tightly as shown in the right hand part of Fig6.

While traditional concrete normally has a compressive strength ranging anywhere from 2,500 to 5,000 psi, UHPC can have a compressive strength of up to 10 times that of traditional concrete. After just 14 days of curing, UHPC has a compressive strength of 20,000 psi. This number increases to 30,000 psi when fully cured for 28 days.

According to Oyenuga (2004), reinforced concrete is a mixture of two dissimilar but complementary materials, namely concrete and steel. Concrete has significant crushing strength, durable and good resistance to fire but has poor strength in tension. On the other side, steel has a very good tensile an shear strength, but poor resistance to fire.
