Strength Tests of Concrete Specimen Exposed to an Aggressive Environments

Abstract

The paper presents the results of static tests of the concrete beams exposed to the aggressive environment in the agricultural building. The long-term effect of an aggressive environment was expected. The aim of analysis was to evaluate the condition of the ceiling panels. Static tests have provided information on the possible modulus of elasticity and the classes of concrete used to make the beams. The concrete beams with higher structure porosity and lower bulk density showed lower strength values and lower modulus of elasticity values. The knowledge gained from the analysis of beams will be used for comparison with the results obtained from the ceiling panels.
