摘要:This experimental work was carried out to investigate the effect of concrete strength in terms ofcompressive and split tensile strength for M20 grade of normal strength concrete and M40 grade of mediumstrength concrete as per 10262:1999 by adopting Immersion curing, Wet gunny bags curing and Accelerated warmwater curing as per IS 9013:1978. Traditionally, quality of concrete in construction works is calculated in terms of its28 days compressive strength .This procedur e requires 28 days of moist curing before testing, which is too long aperiod to be of any value for either concrete construction control or applying timely corrective measures. What isessentially needed for assessing quality of controlled concrete is an acceptance test which can supply results,within about 24 hours after casting. With the assistance of reliable test methods employing accelerated curingtechniques, it is now possible to test the compressive strength of concrete within a short period and thereby the testresults of compressive strength and split tensile strength having good agreement with the specified strength at28 days. The results of the investigations demonstrate that superior strength is achieved by Immersion curing than theother two types of curing. But the strength achieved in Accelerated curing within 24 hours is nearby to Immersioncuring. So, Accelerated curing can be used for curing , also it is very much useful in prefabrication industry.
