Concrete Maturity History
In the 1970s, a string of fatal construction disasters motivated engineers and researchers to refine the technique for routine construction.
The Maturity Curve
A maturity curve is a graphical representation of the relationship between concrete strength and maturity.
How to Use Maturity Meters
Here’s a step-by-step guide to estimating concrete strength using COMMAND Center™ concrete temperature and maturity sensors.
What is Concrete Maturity?
Concrete maturity indicates how far curing has progressed. Maturity is the relationship between concrete temperature, time, and strength gain.
