Maximum Allowable Heat of Hydration and Differential Temperatures in Mass Concrete
Maximum Allowable Heat of Hydration and Differential Temperatures in Mass Concrete
(OP)
Dear All;
Can someone help me locating any International Standard (ACI, ASTM, BS EN, CIRIA) that specifies;
1. MAX ALLOWABLE TEMPERATURE AT THE CORE OF A MASS CONCRETE STRUCTURE (THICKNESS > 1.0 METER)
2. MAX ALLOWABLE DIFFERENTIAL TEMPERATURE BETWEEN THE CORE AND THE SURFACE OF THE MASS CONCRETE STRUCTURE
I tried searching all ACI documents relating to Mass Concrete but they are very general. I believe there is one CIRIA publication that specifies.... Please shed some light.
Thanks in advance

I had researched item 2 earlier this year and found a recommendation that the temperature differential should not exceed 30 degrees F. Can't seem to find the reference for that number.

It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to be always right by having no ideas at all.

Yes, I should have had a look at it. It was only the contents and the introduction.
