Curing and its different method.

Curing is the process in which the concrete is protected from loss of moisture and kept within a reasonable temperature range. The result of this process is increased strength and decreased permeability. Curing is also a key player in mitigating cracks in the concrete, which severely impacts durability.

Methods of curing :

1)Ponding of water over the concrete surface after it has set.

2)Covering the concrete with damp earth.

3)Covering the concrete with wet burlap.

4)Membrane curing of concrete.

5)The sprinkling of the woter method.

6)Steam curing.
