Stress strain for cement-paste:
The stress-strain curve for hardened cement paste is almost linear as shown in the figure.
Stress strain for aggregate:
The aggregate is more rigid than the cement paste and will therefore deform less (i.e. have a lower strain) under the same applied stress.
Stress strain for concrete:
The stress strain curve of concrete lies between those of the aggregate and the cement paste. However this relationship is non-linear over the most of the range.
