RDC TempCrete keeps concrete temperature within desirable limits to minimise thermal cracking, early drying or setting due to high heat of hydration in mass concreting pours. Ingredients and proportions are selected for minimum heat of hydration and lowest possible placing temperature.

Key features

• Reduces core temperature and differential
• Lower heat of hydration
• Controls early setting and stiffening of concrete
• Minimizes thermal stress and cracking
• Improves durability
• Available in slump and (flow - word cut off)

Applications

• Mass concreting
• Raft foundations
• Columns with large sections
