  • First Online:

Part of the book series: RILEM State-of-the-Art Reports ((RILEM State Art Reports,volume 27))

Abstract

This chapter is dedicated to relevant thermal properties in the scope of massive concrete structures. The initial part of the chapter (Sect. 3.1) pertains to properties that affect internal temperature developments in concrete, namely the thermal conductivity, the heat capacity and the heat exchanges between concrete and the surrounding media. The final part of the chapter (Sect. 3.2) is devoted to the thermal expansion coefficient, which is of fundamental importance to understand and predict the actual volume changes that take place in massive structures due to temperature variations.
