Curing is one of those activities that every civil engineer and construction worker
has heard of, but does not worry about much. In practice, curing is often low on the
list of priorities on the construction site, particularly when budgets and timelines
are under pressure. Yet the increasing demands being placed on concrete mixtures also
mean that they are less forgiving than in the past. Therefore, any activity that will
help improve hydration and so performance, while reducing the risk of cracking, is
becoming more important. Curing Concrete explains exactly why curing is crucial and
shows you how to best do it. The book also looks at examples of how curing -- or lack
of it -- has affected concrete performance in real-world situations. -- Taken from
