Strength development of concrete
Balancing production requirements and ecological impact
The effective production of concrete structures requires adequate control of
strength development in order to realise the scheduled production cycles. Demoulding of elements can take place only when sufficient strength is gained and the production cycle has to be maintained with

In spite of the many advantages, the use of self-compacting concrete
(SCC) is currently widely limited to application in precast factories and sihiations
in which external vibration would cause large difficulties. One of the main
limitations is the higher sensitivity to small var

The development of strength is an important criterion for the production of
prefabricated concrete elements. With seasonal changes of temperature that affect the development of concrete strength, daily cycles of often 18 hours or shorter have to bemaintained. The use of Ordinary
