Case Study

This section used a standard construction insulating blanket
and no external heat was applied. The temperature attained is
consistently about 10 ºF (-12 ºC) lower than the adjacent section of
concrete covered by the unheated Powerblanket® . Note that the
temperature of the slab dropped noticeably over the last 8 hours
of curing time, likely due to the cold rain that fell at the jobsite.
Upon arrival at the jobsite at 6 a.m., it was observed that a portion
of the standard blanket had been blown o part of the slab near
where the sensor was located.
