Maturity-Based Strength Predictions
The maturity method has been widely applied to predict mechanical properties (most commonly, strength) of cement-based materials as a function of temperature and time, assuming a particular availability of moisture. The two common versions described in ASTM C1074 were originally proposed by Nurse (modified by Saul and referred to herein as NS), and by Freiesleben-Hansen and Pedersen (referred to herein as FHP). FHP is frequently referred to as the Arrhenius Method because FHP is based on the landmark work of the Swedish chemist of the same name. While recent progress in sensor, communications, and computational technology has made it more convenient to collect in-place temperatures and convert such data to strength predictions, this paper focuses on the significant influence of initial characterization of temperature sensitivity in Step 1 on the accuracy of the predictions in Step 4.
