Effect of Microwave Curing Conditions on High Strength Concrete Properties

Abstract

The present paper reviews suitable MWs curing method and processes for rapid thermal curing application of concrete which could be implement in a reasonable way to improve the rate of strength development. It further provides a deeper understanding of concrete technology and proposes suitable points for future study. The first part describes the necessity of curing on the strength development of concrete at early age and then discusses its factors affecting. Also describes about high strength concrete and reactions occurring in the concrete. The second part reports the implementing method for achieving this purpose covering dielectric properties involved and related heating mechanisms.
