Curing Concrete Curing Moisture Temperature Time Effect of Adequate Curing on Hardened Concrete Increased Strength Watertightness Abrasion resistance Freeze-thaw resistance Volume stability Effect of Moist Curing Effect of Curing Temperature on Strength Effect of Curing Temperature on Strength Curing Methods 1. Supply additional water with: Ponding or immersion Spraying or fogging Saturated wet coverings Curing of Concrete by Supplying Water Curing Methods 2. Seal in mixing water: Plastic sheets Membrane-forming curing compounds Membrane Curing of Concrete Curing Methods 3. Strength gain is accelerated with: Live steam Heating coils Electrically heated forms or pads Steam Curing Strength vs. Steam Curing Strength vs. Curing Temperature Sealing Compounds * Curing Concrete * Curing requires adequate — If any of these factors are neglected, the desiredproperties will not develop Evaporation from water surface Concrete Water supplied from external source Saturated Evaporation from water surface Concrete Curing membrane Saturated Partially saturated EB001 –Design and Control of Concrete Mixtures—14th Edition, 2002, Chapter 12, pages 219 to 228. 1 Initial delay prior to steaming 3 to 5 hours 2 Temperature increase period 2? hours 3 Constant temperature period 6 to 12 hours* 4 Temperature decrease period 2 hours *Type III or high-early-strength cement, longer for other types Fig. 12-9. A typical atmospheric steam-curing cycle. Fig. 12-10. Relationship between strength at 18 hours and delay period prior to steaming. In each case, the delay period plus the steaming period totaled 18 hours (Hanson 1963). Fig. 12-1. Curing should begin as soon as the concrete stiffens enough to prevent marring or erosion of the surface. Burlap sprayed with water is an effective method for moist curing. (69973) Fig. 12-2. Effect of moist curing time on strength gain of concrete (Gonnerman and Shuman 1928). Fig. 12-3. Effect of curing temperature on strength gain relative to 28-d
