Test models of size 50 cm x 50 cm x 50 cm were made with and without protruding rebar. The rebar protruding from the sample simulated the conditions of the hardening of elements such as bridge abutments or pylons, which require technological break. Samples were cast in insulated formworks, to create semi-adiabatic conditions for concrete curing, simulating real conditions of curing of mass structures. The research utilized selfconsolidating concrete with two different rapid hardening cements: CEM I 42.5R and CEM I 52.5R, and blastfurnace cement CEM III/A 42.5N. Continuous registration of temperatures in the samples was performed for the first 7 days. Based on the results acquired and compressive strength, the amount and kinetics of the heat given off in the concrete was determined and an evaluation of its strength in conditions simulating actual conditions was performed. The research showed that the difference in temperature between the reinforced and non-reinforced sample was approximately 14.0° C.}, type={Article}, title={Effect of Protruding Rebar From Casting Element on Temperature Development and Compressive Strength of Mass Concrete}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/115136/PDF/Paper_756_do%20druku.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ace.2020.131806}, keywords={compressive strength, temperature, self-consolidating concrete, protruding rebar, mass structure}, }
