Abstract

This study examines the effect of temperature uptake and downs on fixed properties, including the development of strength, durability and setting time. The elevated temperature accelerates hydration, leading to rapid force, but cracking increases the risk, while low temperatures slow down the process of recovering, reducing the strength of early ages and is potentially structural weaknesses. Research investigates these challenges and presents effective molding strategies, such as using customized mixing designs, treatment techniques and chemical entry. By integrating conclusions from reputable engineering sources, this study provides practical recommendations to increase solid performance and long life in different environmental conditions.
