Cracking control of LeMaHe Inverted Siphon concrete using the maturity method

摘要

The maturity method based on the Arrhenius law makes it possible to predict the concrete''s compressive strength, Young''s modulus, tensile strength, thermal coefficient evolution in a structure on the basis of a 20 °C characterization. In this paper, The LeMaHe Inverted Siphon Project using the maturity method the maturity method in a conservative way to predict the concrete characteristics (Young''s modulus, tensile strength, thermal coefficient) in situ, which are needed in cracking control simulation.
