Split tension strength of self-curing concrete
Publication details: Thane ACC LTD 2024Edition: Vol.98(12), DecDescription: 38-43pSubject(s): Online resources: In: Indian Concrete Journal - ICJSummary: Concrete is the most fundamental material used in the construction work. It requires a huge quantity of water to cure. An effective remedy for this issue is self-curing, which uses chemicals rather than water to cure it. This study looks into the efficacy of self-curing technology and how it impacts concrete's strength. The curing agent used in the current investigation is polyethylene glycol (PEG-400) is added in concrete through casting. The study concludes that self-curing is an effective curing method, outperforming traditionally cured concrete. The split tensile strength of the M20 and M25 self-curing concrete improves by a margin of 36.25 and 18.81 %, respectively.| Item type | Current library | Status | Barcode | |
