| Summary: | During the construction of massive concrete structures, the main factor that affects the structure is temperature. The resulting temperature is the result of hydration of the cement and some other factors, which leads to the formation of thermal cracks at an early age. So, the prediction of temperature history in massive concrete structures has been a very important problem. In this study, with the help of numerical methods, a temperature nomogram was built to quickly determine the maximum temperature in concrete structures with different parameters such as size, cement content, and the initial temperature of the concrete mixture. The obtained temperature nomogram has been compared with the results of the finite element method and the model experiment gives reliable results. It can be used to predict maximum temperature in mass concrete structures to prevent the formation of thermal cracks.
