Prospects for the use of solar energy to accelerate the hardening of concrete in the construction of monolithic structures in Russia

Abstract

This article addresses the issue of solving the problem of using the solar energy, that allows decreasing of the unit costs, or even avoiding using of the traditional energy resources for performance of the concrete in the southern regions of Russian. Researches that were carried out allow developing more contemporary methods of monolithic construction’s concrete curing. Various types of methods of solar energy using in case to produce precast concrete or reinforced concrete items found vast distribution and implementation in construction industry.
