Book Description
This report describes the use of tables developed to help determine problems that may result from early thermal effects in concrete. The thermal behavior of concrete can be estimated from a knowledge of concrete temperature, air temperature, type of cement, and content of cement in the mixture. The thermal effects tables can be used to predict whether too high a temperature will be reached in the pavement; whether early thermal cracking will result from larger differences between the temperature of the concrete slab and the temperature of either the air or the base; or whether there is a risk of early cracking of the concrete. Examples of the use of the table are given along with guidelines for avoiding undesirable thermal effects.
