Usually two specimen concrete cylinders are cast for each day's representative compressive strength test. The 3-days or 7-days tests are done to assess the early gain of concrete strength and make a crude estimate of the 28 day strength at site. However, 28-days tests are mandatory as per design/construction code requirements.
Important Note: As per IS: 516-1959 Minimum three specimens should be tested at each selected age (that means three specimens at 7 days, three specimens @ 14 days & 28 days) If strength of any specimen varies by more than 15% of average strength, such specimen should be rejected.

Therefore, concrete will gain above 90% of its strength in the first 28 days. There is no need to wait beyond 28 days for the remaining strength gain. This is impractical. Due to this, the industry embraced the 28-day strength as a standard, and specifications frequently include reference to compression tests of concrete cylinders or …
