Abstract:
This paper compared long-age strength of concrete cured under outdoor environment and indoor environment in winter, then analyzed the influence of hydration heat, curing temperature, fly ash content and specimen size on concrete strength. The result shows that the strength of specimens cured outdoor has a distinct decrease compared to that cured indoor. The slow-release characteristic of hydration heat of fly ash concrete and certain specimen size are beneficial for maintaining necessary temperature and improve the strength for the specimens cured in low temperature.
