Book Description
In this study the ASTM C-684, making, accelerated curing, and testing of concrete compression test and specimens, was examined. Procedure A, the warm water method, and procedure B, the boiling water method, were evaluated using two types of coarse aggregate, locally available chert gravel and Kentucky limestone. Concrete cylinders were tested after being cured by each accelerated curing method and normal moist curing. The data from each accelerated method were plotted against the normally cured 28-day strength and the best fit curve was determined. Also, an equation was established for each procedure and each curve.
