Accelerated Curing

This document discusses the results of tests conducted on concrete mixtures with different water-cement ratios. While accelerated tests projected higher strength for a ratio of 0.46, the actual 28-day strengths were ultimately higher for lower ratios of 0.44 and 0.42. More testing was done to better correlate the projected and actual strength results.

Conclusion

A huge difference between the actual 28 days


strength and the projected strength based on
accelerated test was noted as seen from Table 1.
Care was taken to use exactly the same materials
for all the six designs. It can be seen that the
projected strength obtained for water cement ratio
of 0.46 was more than that with water cement ratio
of 0.44 and 0.42. The actual 28-days strength for
this water cement ratio is also slightly higher than
what was expected. More tests were conducted to
develop a fresh correlation equation between these
strengths. The results are furnished below
