description This article aims to improve the accuracy and predictability of rebound method in compressive strength evaluation of concrete members of the Yanchong Expressway, which is an important traffic guarantee project for the 2022 Winter Olympics Games in Zhangjiakou city, Hebei Province, China. For this purpose, concrete specimens were prepared by the mixing ratios of C35, C40, and C50. First of all, the paper investigated the effects of curing age, types, and dosage of mineral admixtures (fly ash and slag) on concrete rebound number and compressive strength. Then, the special testing strength curves of 7 d and 90 d curing age were proposed. The results showed that the average relative errors of the special testing strength curves were reduced by 35.99% and 20.26% respectively, compared with the national testing strength curve. Fly ash and slag were beneficial to the growth of concrete rebound numbers but cannot contribute to the growth of concrete compressive strength (except for fly ash single-mixed with 15% dosage). The present results can provide a significant reference for the compressive strength evaluation and later maintenance of concrete members of the Yanchong Expressway or other projects with tight construction period in this area.
