The modulus of elasticity of concrete is a crucial parameter for determining its stiffness and its deformation under load. It is influenced by the type of aggregate, the water-cement ratio, and the age of the concrete. The formula provided in IS 456:2000 is an empirical relationship.
IS-456 : 2000 specifies the modulus of elasticity of concrete ($E_c$) as
