The concrete minimum compressive strength will be specified by the client/designer in a specific format. An example of this is given below: C40/50 The 40 is the compressive requirement of 40 N/mm² of a crushed 100m concrete core and the 50 is a compressive requirement of 50 N/mm² for a crushed concrete cube.

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.

1. Some standards use an overly conservative rule of thumb where the designer simply selects an ASTM C76, Class V, C-wall pipe instead of analyzing the loads on the pipe to determine the necessary pipe strength. This method does not adequately account for all installation variables and may provide an uneconomical pipe system.

After concrete is placed, the concrete increases in strength very quickly for a period of 3-7 days. Concrete which is moist cured for 7 days is about 50% stronger than uncured concrete. Water curing can be done after the slab pour by building dams with soil around the house and flooding the slab. The enclosed area is continually flooded with water.
