Curing is the overlooked step that determines whether concrete reaches full strength or ends up cracking, scaling, and failing early. This video breaks down what curing really is, the most common ...
Concrete is one of the most widely used construction materials worldwide, valued for its strength, durability, and versatility. However, achieving the desired performance of concrete relies heavily on ...
Abstract: The present research focuses on evaluating the impact of different curing methods on concrete compressive strength. The primary objective was to determine how variations in curing methods ...
The American Concrete Institute announces the availability of a new invaluable publication for concrete industry professionals— ACI 308R-16 Guide to External Curing of Concrete. This guide reviews and ...
A recent article published in Materials investigated the restoration of strength and microstructure in high-performance concrete (HPC) through cyclic water and water-CO ₂ treatments. This approach ...
Concrete curing tends to get pushed down the list of priorities on the jobsite. It doesn’t have the same immediate visual payoff as placing and finishing. Add this to budget constraints and tight ...
