  • Abstract:
    Information on the current state of knowledge of curing hydraulic-cement concrete and on current curing practice ; was gathered by means of a literature review and a review of current standard guidance. From this information, a ; draft guide for curing hydraulic-cement concrete pavements was developed. Draft guidance was based around ; type of curing used (water added, water retention by sheet, or curing compound) and around temperature effects. ; As a result of review by the project technical advisory panel, additional information was gathered from existing ; sources on several subjects. Laboratory studies were conducted on topics for which information was needed but ; not currently available. The result of the investigation was a set of guidelines that focused particularly on ; attention to details of moisture retention and temperature immediately after placing (initial curing period) and on ; details of selection of materials for final curing and determining when to apply final curing. Test methods for ; evaluating application rate of curing compound and effectiveness of curing were also reported. A separate report ; (FHWA RD-02-099 Guide for Curing of Portland Cement Concrete Pavements, Volume I) has been written that ; captures the details of the recommended guidance. That report is intended to be the principal technology transfer ; medium.
