Abstract: The maturity method has been applied on a self-compacting-concrete (SCC) made of slag cement and limestone filler. As predicted, first results show the effect of the test temperatures combination on the determination of the cement constant, namely the C-value. The influence of the limestone filler on the determination of the C-value needs further investigations before final conclusions could be drawn. However, a small variation of the C-value does not considerably affect, at low temperature (<10°C), the calculated compressive strength of this SCC.
