Examines the impact of polyethylene glycol and fly ash on self-curing concrete, suggesting significant improvements in hydration and strength.
Self-curing concrete is one type of special concrete which is mitigated insufficient curing due to human negligence paucity of water in arid areas, inaccessibility of structures in difficult terrains and in areas where the presence of fluorides in water will badly affect the characteristics of concrete. The use of Polyethylene Glycol (PEG600) in conventional concrete as an admixture helps better hydration and hence the strength of concrete. The Project aim is to determine the significance of polyethylene glycol and fly ash in self-curing concrete for given mix and its moisture transport in self-curing concrete.
