Modulus of elasticity

ACI 318-11

\( E_{c} = 4733\sqrt {f_{c}^{{\prime }} } \)

CEB-FIP, KCI-11

\( E_{c} = 8500 \cdot \sqrt {f^{\prime}_{c} + 8} \)

EN 1991

\( E_{c} = 22\left( {{{f_{cm} } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{f_{cm} } {10}}} \right. \kern-0pt} {10}}} \right)^{0.3} \)

NZS 3101:1995

\( E_{C} = 3320\sqrt {f_{c}^{{\prime }} } + 6900 \)

CSA A23.3-04

\( E_{C} = 4500\sqrt {f_{c}^{{\prime }} } \)

  1. * At the time of testing.
  2. Ec: Modulus of elasticity of concrete at 28 days.
  3. \( f_{c}^{'} \): Compressive strength of concrete at 28 days.
  4. \( f_{cm} \): Mean compressive strength of concrete at 28 days.
