This paper is aimed at an improved understanding of the way in which the early-age heat of hydration characteristics of concrete are altered by the addition of supplementary cementing materials (SCM), in combination with Portland cement, as a part of the binder. Importantly, in the desig

This is essential input information in the design and construction of large dimension and/or high strength structures where thermal strain

In the investigation reported here, concrete samples containing combinations of Portland cement with GGBS, FA or CSF were tested in an adiabatic calorimeter in order to determine their heat ofhydration characteristics. The test
11、programme was limited to binary blends of the materials, i.e., eachtest was limited to a combination of Portland cement and one supplementary material and all concreteswere prepared at the same water:binder (w/b) ratio. For each type of supplementary material, concretes were prepared with supplement
12、ary material replacing between 5% and 80% of the Portland cement,depending on the type of SCM. Concrete samples with a volume of approximately 1 l were tested in the adiabatic calorimeter. The adiabatic calorimeter that was used in the test programme is based on the principle of surroundinga concret
13、e sample with an environment in which the temperature is controlled to match the temperature of the hydrating concrete itself, thus ensuring that no heat is transferred to or from the sample and the rise in temperature measured is solely due to the heat Mevolved by the hydration process. This calori

Since the rate of evolution of heat during theMhydration of cementitious materials is influenced by Mthe temperature at which the reaction takes place, there is no unique adiabatic heat rate curve for aparticular cement or combination of cementi

In this paper, the results are expressed in terms of maturity or t20 h, which refers to the equivalent time of hydration at 20_C. This form of expressi

The silica sand used in the concretes was obtained in three size fractions and these were recombined as needed for the mixing operation to ensure a uniform sand grading for each concrete.
