Abstract

The internal temperature of the mass concrete is not constant. In the actual project, the internal temperature of the concrete will experience a process of rapid warming to reach the peak temperature and then slow down. In this study, volume measurement method is used to simulate the internal volume deformation of mass concrete under actual engineering conditions. The embedded strain gauge was embedded in concrete with a water-cement ratio of 0.32 for 28 days, and the development of total volume deformation and autogenous volume deformation of concrete under variable temperature conditions was studied by external heating of concrete. The results show that the finer the cement, the earlier the concrete starts to shrink, and the greater the total shrinkage of the concrete. The high temperature will promote the hydration of cement with different fineness and will reduce the total porosity of their paste, but the proportion of harmful pores in the paste with finer cement particles is lower.
