An Experimental Study on Concrete Strength Prediction by Maturity Method
성숙도를 고려한 콘크리트의 강도예측에 관한 실험적 연구
Abstract
The maturity concept proposes that concrete of the same mix at the same maturity has the same strength, whatever combination of temperature and time makes up that maturity. Maturity is the integral of time and temperature of concrete above a datum temperature. Tests are conducted in order to determine a datum temperature and to measure compressive strengths and maturity of test specimens. This study also proposes some appropriate functions to represent the relationship between maturity and strength development.
