Heat Of Hydration Of Cement

-Quantity of Heat (J/g) of unhydrated cement evolved upon complete hydration at a given temperature
-Exothermic Reaction (up to 500J/g) between cement & water
-In normal construction heat is dissipated into the soil or air
-For Massive Structures like dams or mat foundations the heat cannot be readily released and thus attains high internal temperatures
