Abstract

This paper is mainly Intended to show an effect of foundation depth on heat of hydration in mass concrete. From the analysis, it was found that the foundation depth which is not affected by the heat conduction is more than 5 m. But this study shows that, an optimum foundation depth for the FEM analysis for heat of hydration in mass concrete is approximately 1 m from this study. And in order to study tile significance of various parameters, a sensitivity analysis of heat transfer in mass concrete is performed and the amount of heat liberated at complete hydration of unit weight of cement and the reaction velocity of hydration are the most sensitive parameters factors of other various parameters.
