Abstract
Different techniques for measuring heat of hydration of cement are
discussed, and a sample holder designed specially for measuring
isothermal heat of hydration is described. A particular
characteristic of the sample holder is the vacuum mixing technique
which ensures a momentary and homogeneous mixing of the water and
the cement. This enables investigation of the rapid initial
cement-water reactions. In addition, measurements at very low
water-cement ratios are made possible with this technique.
