Cement Hydration Reaction
The workability period covers stage I and part of stage II and it lasts for 1−3 hours [8]. Within this dormant period, the initial concrete set occurs (within 60 minutes) [8]. The final concrete set occurs within the subsequent stage. III. Acceleration or active reaction stage [8].

Analytical model to parameterize the adiabatic temperature rise of concrete
The offset on time, t o, corresponds with the dormant period of cement hydration. A parametric study on the adiabatic temperature rise model suggested in this paper can provide a clear trend on the exponential model equation in Eq. (11). The dependency on the cement content can be more elaborated by parameterizing the adiabatic temperature rise.

The evolution of rheological properties of cement-based materials during the dormant period of cement hydration depends on the coupled effect of temperature and time. Highly flowable concrete is increasingly being used to facilitate construction. Such concrete should be optimized to account for changes in workability during transport and ...

Three-stage microstructure formation in normal cementitious pastes is changed into four stages in mortar and concrete mixtures: an initial rapid UPV increase stage (O→A), which is referred to as "pre-dormant period", then dormant stage, acceleration stage and finally the deceleration stage.

Assessment of Heat of Hydration of High-Strength Concrete
Although the peak occurring time is almost the same for both samples, the dormant period shows slight advancement in the cement type 1 concrete mixture as shown in Fig. 9. The degree of hydration and the rate of heat evolution in a particular concrete mixture are both strongly correlated with the fineness of cementitious materials.

Controlling cement hydration with nanoparticles
Especially C–S–H-seeds of low C/S-ratios, which provide large surface areas, have a strong accelerating impact by shortening the dormant period of cement hydration. In our experiments C–S–H-particles of two different commercial available compositions were used, xonotlite (6CaO⋅6SiO 2 ⋅H 2 O) and tobermorite (5CaO⋅6SiO 2 ⋅5H 2 O).

On the "Thixotropic" Behavior of Fresh Cement Pastes
However, in some cases, cement paste may demonstrate thixotropic behavior during the dormant period of cement hydration. The aim of this work is to propose an approach able to quantify the contribution of cement hydration during the dormant period and to examine the conditions under which the cement paste may display thixotropic behavior.

Why Concrete Temperature Is Important
This is the period at which the fresh concrete is being transported and placed since it has not yet hardened and is still workable (plastic and fluid). The length of the dormant period has been shown to vary depending on multiple factors (cement type, admixtures, w/cm). The end of the dormant period is typically characterised by the initial set.
