The Pears<strong>on</strong>’s correlati<strong>on</strong> was used to determine the relati<strong>on</strong>ship between the set <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> data. The rank assigned each<br />

member <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the set (i.e. average density <strong>and</strong> compressive strength) are from the highest to the lowest. Where equal<br />

values in a set <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> data exist, the same rank has been assigned to each <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the equal value which is the average <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />

their positi<strong>on</strong>s in the ascending order <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the values.<br />
