Abstract

This study discusses the determination of removal time of forms with early strength development in high strength concrete. According to the results, as W/B increases by 10%, the setting time is shortened by about 2 hours. The time when compressive strength of 8 MPa is gained is about 20 hours. Bond strength between form and concrete is highest around final setting time, but decreases drastically after that. Amount of concrete sticking on the form is large before setting, but after that, it is little. The rebound value of P type schmidt hammer is measured faster by 2-3 hours than compressive strength. It is also confirmed that the removal of forms is possible when the rebound value of P type schmidt hammer is more than 34
