摘要:Curing of concrete is maintaining satisfactory moisture content in concrete during its early ages in orderto develop the desired properties. It also plays a major role in developing the concrete microstructure and porestructure, and hence improves its durability and performance. Self-Curing Concrete reduces the water evaporation fromconcrete. It increases the water retention capacity (WRC) the concrete compared to the conventionally cured concrete.Self-Compacting Self-Curing concrete (SC-SCC) has been studied using Polyethylene Glycols (PEGs) and GleniumB233.The current trend is incorporating Self-Compacting agents in Self- Curing Concrete. So, a study may beconducted on self - compacting self- curing concrete. The workability properties of Self-Curing Self-CompactingConcrete with partial replacement (20%) by weight of cement by Quartz powder, Fly-Ash were studied with 1%Addition of PEG for all the tests. Workability studies such as Slump flow test, V– Funnel test and L– Box method wereperformed and Strength related tests such as Compressive test and Split tensile test for 3, 7 & 28 days were performedin this study. Flexural strength of beams size (1500x150x230mm) has been studied.
