STUDY ON THE EFFECT OF CURING METHODS ON STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT OF ULTRA HIGH STRENGTH CONCRETE

This thesis present the development of Ultra High Strength (UHSC) revealed that it has high compressive strength and high tensile strength. It is also except to have a large ductility to develop even after cracking in co-operation with steel fibers. The possibility of achieving high strength, durability and improved ductility with the use of UHSC encourages the engineers to use this modern material in many construction applications. In this study expects, the mechanical properties (compressive strength and flexural strength) of UHSC produced with Fly Ash (FA) and Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) were investigated under different types of curing regimes.
