Abstract : Experimental study was carried out on a prototype structure to investigate the temperature rise characteristics of the concrete used. The actual temperature rise was measured by embedding Thermo Couples – Resistance temperature detector (RTD) in the prototype structure during concreting. The measurements were taken at 2 identical locations with same cross section by inserting 3 thermo couples (TC’s) at each locations totaling to 6 in all. to assess the characteristics of the temperature rise and temperature difference at peak in the concrete.
