“…To investigate the effect of high early temperatures in mass concrete on the properties of concrete, Mani et al (1990) cured concrete specimens using a temperature matched curing (TMC) method, which could simulate the temperature history in mass concrete (in Figure 6). Figure 7 shows the estimated results for the TMC cured concrete by the proposed model, for which the limiting strength is obtained from the standard curing specimens data.…”

The growth of concrete strength is markedly influenced by curing temperature and age. In this paper, the reason why final strength difference occurs between concrete cured under various isothermal temperatures is analysed from a microreaction mechanism angle. Based on an available long-term strength predicting model, a modified model is proposed that could quantify the initial temperature's impact on the long-term and limiting strength. Moreover, experimental data available in the literature are collected and utilised to regress and confirm the parameter value in this new model. The results of analysis for the model indicate that the initial 4 h temperature determines concrete's final strength if neglecting other non-temperature factors.
