A method and apparatus for optimizing the curing of concrete poured under hostile ambient temperature conditions. The apparatus includes a liquid reservoir and pumping system and a number of spaced-apart tube segments overlaid into the forms for receiving the concrete with respective ends of the tubes positioned outside the concrete forms. A liquid manifold is connected to one set of tube ends and a second liquid manifold is connected to the other set of tube ends. The temperature of the liquid in the reservoir is adjusted for optimum curing of concrete, and the liquid is pumped through the tubes after the concrete has been poured; when the concrete hardens the liquid is disconnected, and the tubes are disconnected from the manifolds without removing the tubes from the hardened concrete.

Cette invention concerne une méthode et un appareillage servant à optimiser le durcissement du béton coulé dans des conditions adverses de température ambiante. L'appareillage comprend un réservoir de liquide avec installation de pompage et un certain nombre de tronçons de tube traversants disposés à intervalles dans le coffrage. Un collecteur est raccordé aux extrémités des tubes d'un côté du coffrage et un autre collecteur est raccordé aux extrémités opposées desdits tubes. La température du liquide stocké dans le réservoir est réglée à la valeur optimum pour le durcissement du béton et le liquide est pompée dans les tubes une fois le béton coulé en place. Après le durcissement du béton, le liquide est retourné dans le réservoir et les collecteurs sont débranchés tout en laissant les tubes en place dans le béton durci.
