The
Temperature
rise
varies
by
many
parameters:
i. Cement composition, fineness, and
content
ii. Aggregate content and CTE
(Coefficient of Thermal
Expansion)
iii. Section geometry
iv.
Placement
&
ambient
temperatures
Most temp rise occurs in first 1-3 days
after placement.
READY MIXED
CONCRETE
(RMC)
It
is
a
concrete
whose
ingredients/
constituents are weight-batched at the
batching plant, mixed at the plant itself or
during the transit in transit/truck mixers,
and transported to the construction site and
delivered in a ready to use condition, thus
known as Ready Mixed Concrete (RMC).
Maintaining
the
workability
of
the
concrete mix and avoid the hardening/
stiffening of the mix is the main problem
in the transportation of concrete.
Concrete stiffens with time and handling
of RMC often takes longer time.
Safe haul time shall be limited to 90
minutes or 300 revolutions (whichever is
less).
Agitating up to 6 hours may not adversely
affect the strength of the concrete,
provided that the mix should remain
sufficiently workable for full compaction.
