Transient plane source measurements of the thermal properties of hydrating cement pastes
Author(s): Dale P. Bentz
Since cracking in concrete is usually caused by thermal processes, relevant thermophysical properties such as heat capacity and thermal conductivity are important. This article details the measurement of thermal conductivity ...
