Which of the following is not a feature of concrete?

Answer: A. Ductility

Ductility is not a feature of concrete.

Solution

• Ductility: Ductility is the property of a material by which material undergoes deformation after its yielding.
• Compressive strength: Compressive strength is the strength of material by which a material can withstand compressive strength. Concrete is strong in compression, hence it can withstand compressive stresses.
• Tensile strength: Tensile strength is the strength of material by which a material can withstand tensile stresses. Concrete is weak in tension but it has some tensile strength.
• Shrinkage: Shrinkage is the amount of deformation which occurs in concrete after its settlement.

Hence, Compressive strength, tensile strength, and shrinkage are the features of concrete but ductility is not a feature of concrete.
