Effect of hot weather on pulse velocity and modulus of elasticity of concrete
Abstract This paper presents the results of tests for pulse velocity and modulus of elasticity conducted on concrete specimens prepared and cured under both controlled laboratory conditions and natural atmospheric conditions of hot weather. The results have shown that both the pulse velocity and modulus of elasticity of concrete are reduced with increase in concrete mix temperature at preparation, indicating the detrimental effect of hot weather on the quality of concrete. Even if the concrete mix is so designed as to give the required compressive strength for concrete prepared and cured in hot weather, the modulus of elasticity could be reduced by as much as 17.5%.
