Choose the correct answer
A
54772.26 MPa
B
27386.13 MPa
C
41079.19 MPa
D
13693.06 MPa
Correct Answer
B. 27386.13 MPa
Why is this the answer?
IS 456:2000 empirical formula for modulus of elasticity of normal-weight concrete: Ec = 5000 * sqrt(fck) MPa, where fck = characteristic cube strength (N/mm^2). Short-term static modulus; long-term effective modulus = Ec/(1+theta), theta = creep coefficient (typically 1.6–2.2). Used in structural deflection and stability analysis. Ec=5000√fck=5000√30=27386.13 MPa.
