: Modulus of rupture is the measure of the tensile strength of an unreinforced slab or concrete beam to resist failure. In order to know the quality of concrete work done, Modulus of rupture is very useful in determining the same. Usually Flexible pavements are preferred as compared to Rigid pavements due to its low initial cost. But in rainy season flexible pavements get detoriated and its maintenance becomes costly. The basic aim is to see the variation of modulus of rupture of concrete in rigid pavements at different temperatures. Modulus of rupture of concrete is determined by the use of a simple beam with third-point loading. This test method is used to determine the modulus of rupture of specimens prepared and duly cured in accordance with ASTM standards also used in India. Results are calculated and reported as the modulus of rupture. The strength determined will vary where there are differences in specimen size, preparation, moisture condition, curing, or where the beam has been molded or sawed to size.
