Abstract:
In this study, concrete specimens, having different shapes and sizes have been studied for two different strength levels cured in air and in water. Compressive strength test was performed on cubic and cylindrical samples, having various sizes. The analyses of this investigation were focused on conversion factors for compressive strengths of different samples. Conversion factors of different specimens against cross sectional area of the same specimens were also plotted and regression analyses were done. It was found that according to the results of analyses, the best fit curves, tend to have different trends at different curing conditions.

Key words:  Compressive strength, concrete, curing, mechanical properties, modeling, ,
