CONCRETO (Fck 25 Mpa) Concrete (Compression resistance 25 Mega Paschal) Explanation: See link below which explains much better than I could! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 mins (2011-02-19 21:18:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Here´s more: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_fck_of_concrete "The concrete used in structures is characterized by its resistance, the fck." I haven´t found what "fck" actually stands for. It looks a bit German to me... Reference: http://br.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=2008070313285... |

Reference: MPa Reference information: mega-Pascal. Pascal is the SI unit for pressure (Newton/square meter) 1 Bar (or older Atmosphere) is equal to 100,000 Pascal. For Fck I guess is the cracking pressure/force (only a guess) Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(unit) |
