Comparative analysis of the compressive strength of concrete under different curing methods

Abstract Concrete is the most widely used material in construction, which possesses different characteristics and possible manufacturing methods. is, also, characterized by its high resistance to compression durability, factors that could have been directly influenced curing method early ages. The objective of this research demonstrate importance concrete process, as well analyze influence chosen on resistance. 48 test samples were manufactured, standard requirements. Subsequently, divided into eight batches, subjected types curing: immersion curing, twice a day; outdoor curing; total waters, application commercial agent; with polyethylene foil coating without curing. Performing testing at 7 28 days. Among results obtained, batch underwent presented more efficient effect terms compression; followed techniques water.
