Introduction
Construction industry is growing like day by day
even in remote area and desert regions
o Environmental factor
What is Self curing concrete ?
o S.C.C is the one which can cure itself by retaining its
moisture content.
Features
single application
no other curing necessary
easy and safe spray application
endures hard wearing surface
CONCURE WB
Application procedure
53 grade O.P.C.
River sand as fine aggregate.
Quarried and crushed stone as coarse aggregate.
Potable water.
TEST ON INGREDIENT MATERIALS
Introduction:
The present investigation is carried out to study the
behavior of normal and self cured concrete and ingredient
material by using O.P.C. 53 grade cement. The tests were
carried out at the Concrete Laboratory of Civil Engineering
Department, AIT, Chikamaglur.
Test on cement:
`
53 grade O.P.C.
In this type of cement, the 28 days cement strength is expected to
have a minimum value of 53 Mpa.
Design stipulations:
1 1.84 3.00
