Abstract

In spite of it is well known that some environmental factors have a significative influence in the physical and mechanical properties of hardened concrete, most suppliers of ready-mixed concrete have implemented standard dosifications for each site and they don´t vary it according to summer weather conditions. Consequently, there is a cement overdosage in order to compensate compression strenght drop. The aim of this experimental study is develop a methodology that save cement and other raw materials in summer time, with the consequential environmental benefits
