| Summary: | analyzed to develop a strength-maturity relationship. A carried out and the results of these tests were statistically concrete application is proposed. By using this method, concrete strength can be predicted non-destructively by construction, the construction schedule needs to be construction. Therefore, a good estimation of the duration established prior to the beginning of the actual Fast track construction is a special type of construction Finally, a concrete temperature simulation program was used intersection constructions. In order to plan and organize a maturity relationship. A series of laboratory tests was measuring the maturity of concrete and utilizing a strength- measuring the maturity of concrete. Field work was carried minimize the construction duration. Since the duration of necessary for the curing of concrete in fast track of the curing of concrete activity needs to be made by the out to evaluate the applicability of the method in the field. predict the time of curing and strength development for a prevailing site conditions. scheduler. In this research, a method that can be used to temperature independent model was developed to be able to the hardening period of concrete is largely undefined at the time of placement, it becomes difficult to schedule the time to predict the opening time of a concrete slab under used in the field to validate the strength of concrete by utilize it at different curing conditions. This model can be where construction methods and activities are planned to |
