THIS REPORT PRESENTS A DISCUSSION OF THE EFFECTS OF HEAT GENERATION AND VOLUME CHANGE ON THE DESIGN AND BEHAVIOR OF MASSIVE REINFORCED CONCRETE ELEMENTS AND STRUCTURES. PARTICULAR EMPHASIS IS PLACED ON THE EFFECTS OF RESTRAINT ON CRACKING AND THE EFFECTS OF CONTROLLED PLACING TEMPERATURES, CONCRETE STRENGTH REQUIREMENTS, TYPE AND FINENESS OF CEMENT ON VOLUME CHANGE.
