After placement, the temperature of the concrete was measured and recorded by thermal sensors during the first 7 days. The temperature change with time is given in the figure below. If the datum temperature of the concrete mix is known to be -5°C. calculate the maturity of concrete at the end of 7 days using Nurse-Saul equation?
