Increasing Concrete Strength

Compressive strength

Compressive strength is the most common performance metric for concrete. The compressive strength of concrete can be increased by:

Including admixtures
Adjusting the cement type and quantity
Reducing the water/cement ratio
Utilizing supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs)
Altering the aggregates - type and gradations

Additionally, high-early strength concrete can be achieved through a 4x4 Concrete System.
