PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE UNDER CONDITIONS OF DRY HOT CLIMATE.

Abstract

Compressive and tensile strength. Hardening of concrete in a dry hot climate
leads to a change in its strength compared to a similar characteristic obtained for
concrete hardening under normal temperature and humidity conditions. These
changes are mainly associated with the physical and chemical processes occurring in
the hardening concrete during which determines the regularity of the manifestation of
strength characteristics. The combined variable effect of temperature, solar radiation
and low relative humidity leads to a change in strength.
