Abstract

During construction, the problem of temperature crack formation in mass concrete structures is really an important issue that needs attention and research. This paper provides an overview of the current criteria for evaluating the possibility of forming thermal cracks. At the same time, the concrete block under certain construction conditions was considered to predict the temperature field and thermal stress. Besides that, the numerical method has been implemented with the help of Midas software for structural analysis. The results obtained allow us to assess the risk of thermal cracking and compare it with the criteria used in actual construction practices.
