Abstract

Our country has experienced variations in temperature as belong to the area of the continental climate that shows four significant seasons. These occur immense difficulty on the period, cost, quality of construction. As the hydration of cement processes, the strength of concrete is developed. In order to improve the quality of concrete, various conditions including temperature and humidity should be maintained appropriately and concrete itself should be cured sufficiently. In the early age, the strength of concrete is developed remarkably. However, the hydration is accelerated too much in high temperature or delayed too much in low temperature, so the quality can be changed and It can fail to get the objective strength. This paper aims to offer the data, necessary to the quality control handbook.
