Concrete Curing Methods and Materials
A study was made to evaluate some of the methods of curing used in Nebraska. Seven curing methods were used. These included waterproof paper, plastic film, white pigmented curing compound, wet burlap, clear curing compound or combinations of these. Three 700-foot sections of concrete pavement were cured by each method. The effect of each type of curing was determined by laboratory tests on cores from the pavement and by pavement condition surveys. The laboratory tests on the cores included abrasion test, air void test, mixing water test, and strength test. None of the tests showed any variation which could be attributed to curing method. The field inspection also shows no signs of surface deterioration which could be attributed to curing. Because of the cool, humid weather conditions during construction, little or no differences due to the curing media could be detected. (Author)
