Construction of cement-concrete pavements of highways in dry hot climatic conditions

A dry hot climate negatively affects freshly laid concrete pavements of highways. Under the influence of solar radiation, high temperature combined with low humidity, and the presence of dry winds, intensive evaporation of mixing water occurs, leading to insufficient strength gain of concrete. This article highlights the problems of constructing cement-concrete pavements of highways in dry hot climates and suggests ways to address them.
