Effect of Plastic Stage Curing on Long-Term Properties of High Performance Concrete

Abstract:

Effect of plastic stage curing on long-term properties of high performance concrete (HPC) was studied, thereafter, the mechanism is also analyzed. Results showed that compared to compressive strength, the permeability of surface concrete (especially for silica fume concrete) was more sensitive to plastic stage curing, and deteriorations due to insufficient plastic stage curing cant be eliminated by later longer time of wet curing. Furthermore, the deterioration of pore structure and formation of microcracks were main reasons for insufficient plastic stage curing that affected properties of concrete.
