Description

When concrete is used in massive structures, such as dams, foundations, and some concrete highways, it must be cooled to minimize cracking. Refrigeration is required to offset the heat of hydration of cement after pouring. Cooling causes concrete to shrink while the mass is still in a semifluid state, which reduces the possibility of cracking.
