Early Strength Development
Hardening accelerating admixture: Admixtures that increase the rate of development of early strength in the concrete, with or without affecting the setting time. Setting is normally determined by measuring the time until a certain mechanical resistance is obtained when a penetration needle is forced into the cement paste (e.g. the Vicat apparatus).
