This paper reports the results of a research study conducted to evaluate the effect of curing methods on the mechanical properties of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) With Flyash as cementitious material with 30% replacement to cement. Concrete Cube specimens were prepared and cured by different curing methods. These methods included without curing, Ponding, Gunny bags, Curing Compounds. The curing compounds were applied immediately after casting or after an initial period of burlap curing. The effect of the selected curing regime on the properties of OPC was evaluated by measuring compressive strength, and also checking the quality of concrete with the pulse velocity instrument. The strength and durability characteristics of both OPC concrete specimens cured by applying the selected curing compounds were similar or better than that of concrete specimens cured by covering with wet burlap. Though no significant change in strength could be noted due to the curing methodology. Shrinkage of Concrete cylinders was also measured along with quality of concrete by Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity Test.

Effect of Curing Methods on Strength and Elastic Properties of Concrete
