Introduction
At project site, we conduct concrete cube testing to check compressive strength of laid concrete.
If we get designed strength in testing, we can say that our structures are safe from compressive
strength point of view. At present at various projects across India cube failure occurs frequently,
which becomes major concern for all agencies involved in it like contractor, consultant, client and
TPIs. In this article various possible reasons are discussed in brief which may directly or indirectly
affect the compressive strength of concrete.
