Solution

The correct option is C compression
Strength of concrete is maximum in compression. The compressive strength test cube specimen is of the size 15×15×15 cm. If the largest nominal size of the aggregate does not exceed 20 mm, 10 cm size cube may also be used as an alternative.
* Cylindrical test specimens have a length equal to twice the diameter. They are 15 cm in diameter and 30 cm long.
