Additional information

Part I, which dealt with the Behaviour of Fresh Concrete in Hot Climate, was published inMaterials and Structures, No. 62 (March-April, 1978). Together with the paper “A review of work reported to the Committee 2-HC Concrete in Hot Countries on Thermal Stress Problems in Concrete Structures in Hot Countries” by Prof. A. W. Hendry, the “Draft Proposal for Standardisation of Test Procedures and Records” by D. M. F. Orr, both published inMaterials and Structures, No. 49, 1976. and the present article, they constitute the Report of the Committee.
