The paper describes the effect of hardening conditions on the hydration of cement stone and methods of controlling the concrete formation on the basis of the above research methodology. It has been proved that when the humidity of the medium in which hardening takes place is regulated, the strength and the deformation of the material change. By adding an expand-ing component to concrete, it is possible to adjust the technical parameters of concrete and simulate the durability of concrete structures. Thus, the study of the mechanisms of volumetric deformation during hardening of cement stone with a different ratio of the expanding additive allows designing con-crete compositions for different operating conditions.
