The Effect Of Curing Types On Compressive Strength Of High Performance Concrete
محتوى المقالة الرئيسي
الملخص
The present investigation considers the effect of curing temperatures (30, 40, and 50˚C) and curing compound method on compressive strength development of high performance concrete, and compares the results with concrete cured at standard conditions and curing temperature (21˚C). The experimental results showed that at early ages, the rate of strength development at high curing temperature is greater than at lower curing temperature, the maximum increasing percentage in compressive strength is 10.83% at 50C˚ compared with 21C˚ in 7days curing age. However, at later ages, the strength achieved at higher curing temperature has been less, and the maximum percentage of reduction has been 5.70% at curing temperature 50C˚ compared with 21C˚curing temperature in 91 days curing age. Also, the results showed that the specimens which are cured under field condition (using curing compound) have a various strength development rate, and the results indicate 92.11% as minimum field-standard curing strength ratio.
