Abstract
This study presents the relationship between modulus of elasticity and, modulus of rupture relationship with compressive strength of M60 concrete incorporating Metakaolin. Comparing the experimentally obtained result with the mechanical properties calculated using the recommended relationship from the various design codes, one finds substantially variation in the data. A new empirical relationship between elastic modulus, modulus of rupture and compressive strength for Metakolin based M60 concrete is proposed.
