Abstract |
|
In construction industries concrete is primary requirement to build. Curing plays a most vital role after construction but requires huge amount of water which is lacking now a days. People are even struggling for water at present to meet daily requirements. In this scenario self-curing concrete can be used which reduces water usage in whole construction work as each cubic meter of concrete requires 3m3 of water for curing purpose Now a days for curing concrete without usage of water, water proofing compounds, shrinkage reducing admixtures, water soluble alcohols are utilized without compromising the strength and durability properties. In this context the effect of addition of different types of self-curing compounds and their effect on the Mechanical properties done by the researchers are reviewed based on the past literature. |
