Curing of Concrete slab

Curing: Curing of concrete is a process by which fresh wet concrete is allowed to complete its reaction to attained its desire strength. By this method concrete is protected against loss of moisture required for hydration and kept within the recommended temperature range. 

Necessity of Curing of Concrete slab:

1) To enhance hydration of concrete to achieve desire strength.

2) Well cured concrete has minimum thermal, plastic and drying shrinkage crack which make concrete more water, tight results durable concrete.

3) In-adequate curing results weak and dusty surface of concrete, results a poor abrasion resistance.
