The hydration reaction between cement and water that takes place in concrete produces heat. The amount of heat generated and the rate at which it is generated depend on the type of cement and its fineness. The peak temperature is dependent upon the cement type and content, the initial temperature, the ambient conditions, the geometry of the member and the type of formwork. High ambient

The process is known as hydration. Cement consists of the following major compounds (see composition of cement): Tricalcium silicate, C 3 S; Dicalcium silicate, C 2 S; Tricalcium aluminate, C 3 A; Tetracalcium aluminoferrite, C 4

During the Hydration of the cement, the major Bouges compounds C 3 S and C 2 S are responsible for the setting and the hardening of the cement. In the presence of water, the silicates and aluminates form products of hydration that will result in a hard mass over a period of time. This hard mass is called as the Hydrated Cement

In Portland cement the hydration of C 3 A involves reactions mostly with sulfate ions which are supplied by the dissolution of gypsum added during the manufacturing of cement. Reactions involved in the hydration of C 3 A: The primary initial reaction of C 3 A, when ample amount of gypsum is present, is; as follows:
