A method comprising:
- placing a first quantity of concrete in a concrete form, wherein the concrete form comprises a concrete forming panel and a reinforcing frame, wherein a layer of insulating material is disposed between the reinforcing frame and the first quantity of plastic concrete;
- sensing the temperature of the first quantity of concrete in the concrete form;
- moving the concrete form to an adjacent position after the first quantity of concrete reaches a desired temperature, wherein at least a portion of the first quantity of concrete is not within the concrete form;
- placing a second quantity of concrete in the concrete form.
