This article concentrates on the numerical analysis of hydration heat resulting in formation of cracks on the experimental block of the spillway at Orlik Reservoir and its verification with the experimental measurement. In order to eliminate the maximum of critical factors which could lead to appearance of early age cracking and faulty execution of the spillway, an experimental block was concreted. It served as a trial block for all steps of the execution process as well as a validating temperature measurement during cement hydration to confirm with the preliminary numerical analysis.
