The heat generated during the curing period of concrete may results in early thermal cracking. To avoid or at least alleviate this early thermal cracking problem, replacing part of cement by cementitious materials should be an effective method. Herein, it is proposed to add PFA or CSF as cement replacement to lower the cement content and heat generated from the hydration of cement. To study the effectiveness of adding PFA or CSF in reducing the heat generation of curing concrete, a series of concrete mixes with water/cement ratios ranging from 0.24 to 0.40 and different amounts of PFA or CSF added were tested for their heat generation. The results illustrated that the addition of PFA or CSF as cement replacement could effectively reduce the adiabatic temperature rise and heat generation of curing concrete, while the addition of CSF is much more effectively than addition of PFA in reducing heat generation at the same strength.
