Abstract: Based on the finite difference method, the temperature field of large volume concrete in a raft foundation project of a nuclear power plant was calculated; And based on this, crack resistance calculation was carried out for the large volume concrete of this project through temperature stress calculation; Finally, preliminary discussions were conducted on temperature control measures for large volume concrete in conjunction with this project.

(2) A certain project used shaft kiln cement from a certain cement plant and high-efficiency composite water reducer from a certain admixture plant, which initially had good effects.
Later, a batch of concrete mixed with the same admixture experienced rapid setting, resulting in a loose concrete structure.
Finally, all 800m3 of concrete that had already been poured had to be smashed off.
Upon investigation, it was found that the cement passed the cement standard inspection and the water reducing agent also passed the inspection.
However, the concrete produced by combining the two had serious quality issues.
In order to investigate the cause, researchers conducted experiments using the cement and water reducing agent involved in the accident, and found that there was indeed a rapid setting phenomenon.
However, by adding 0.
5% to 1.
0% (dihydrate gypsum) to the cement, concrete with good workability and strength was obtained.
This proves that the cement is incompatible with the water reducing agent due to insufficient gypsum content (but meets the cement standard performance).

As the core material of modern construction engineering, the quality of concrete directly affects the safety and durability of the engineering structure.
With the continuous development of the construction industry, concrete quality control is facing new challenges and opportunities.
This article combines the latest industry data in 2025 with regulatory practices in various regions to analyze the current problems in concrete quality control and propose systematic solutions.

4 of the “Code for Construction of Concrete Structures” (GB 50666-2011) states that adding water during transportation, conveying, and pouring of concrete can seriously affect its quality.
This article attempts to analyze the issues of water addition and control during the concrete pouring process, and discuss and learn from peers and experts.

In construction and road and bridge construction, there are various types of concrete, and there are three common types based on their use, performance, and raw materials: 1.
Cement concrete: mixed with cement, sand, stones, and water, which is the most commonly used in road and bridge construction; 2.
Asphalt concrete: using asphalt instead of cement, with good flexibility, mainly used for paving roads, such as bridge decks and highway surface layers; 3.
Polymer concrete: This type of concrete is made by adding polymer materials, which have high strength and corrosion resistance, and is used in special projects such as chemical plants or repair projects.
